The topic yesterday in Facebook messages was men who masquerade as spiritual teachers yet have a history of being unconscious in their own relationships. I had my own experience in December 2012 so no need to rehash. Jeff Brown writes If we don’t let go of what we carry, we won’t move an inch. I let stuff go as quickly as I can. Not everyone does that. My friend is charismatic, talks a great talk, but to this day refuses to take responsibility for a trail of relationship wreckage he left in his wake, including his mother, his wife, his daughter, exes, friends. When called on it, he blows up, cuts the cord and moves into a new set of friends. In the Facebook messages, a particular spiritual teacher who some view as a guru is new on the scene and is being criticized by some for not acting as people expect him. I’ve been in the genre since the 70’s and seen many “gurus” come and go. It is the job of the guru to dash our beliefs and expectations and make ourselves question everything we’ve become comfortable in. They are working their own karma out, just as we are. My experience is that our current relationships are only as conscious as our past partings were, and that includes everyone. Steve Hart wrote today on Facebook: “Pay close attention to what is before you… it is there for a reason…” Everyone, what is before YOU right now? What do you think is the reason? Why do you think you attracted the “guru” into your line of sight?
