Is it possible to have a Guru or a spiritual
teacher?
In a modern society
where everybody is equal
where everybody is his or her own Master?
In contemporary democratic societies the social interaction between humans
tends to follow horizontal lines. This is a major Human achievement!
Before that, communication along vertical lines have bonded
humans
in pyramids of power and suppression.
But - if we become one dimensional in our equal outlook -
are we then able to recognize, admire and imbibe great Human Spirit?
Or are we
noisy, arrogant, small, mass produced, post modern egos?
our cup always filled with our own agenda...
Well - at least I can speak for myself...
One of the things that
was most difficult for my western ego,
was to accept a vertical Spiritual Influx.
Grace is a multi dimensional joker in a cosmic card game.
To allow this play to take place in you - you have to accept
that you can only win by being a looser.
Lose yourself in front of That which is greater than you.
Well...so many Great Beings from Jesus to Muhammad have expressed that so
beautifully!
And so many less great souls from Hitler to new age cult leaders have
misused that!
So ... I am very grateful to my little over-proud and skeptical ego!
It has saved me many times in the last 30 years...
I watched others surrender to folly
and face the painful consequences.
So we have to be very skeptical and vigilant!
while we long and look for:
The
Right time
The
Right place
&
the
Right company
