By Rejecting others, One Rejects Himself...
Sorry to disappoint - But nobody is my guru, or it also can be said in this way... that everybody is my guru.
Because its life itself that is the real teacher. The only way one doesn't learn is by rejecting life, and/or any part of it. By rejecting others, one is rejecting oneself, as everything, everyone is part of life. By closing oneself to life, to others, one closes himself to learning from it, one is be cutting himself off from what life can offer. One will have a tendency to think that he knows it all.
Ego tends to claim it knows, that it knows it all. With this view, one cuts himself off at the knees, stops evolving, stops growing, becomes angry, becomes sad, becomes dead... begins rotting from the inside-out. Turns, slowly but surely, into a dead man walking.
That's what the so-called 'established religions' in this world have done those that flock to them. Just look at the faces of the pope, cardinals, bishops, priests. All stone-like - all dead men. Hardened inside. Inflexible, unwilling to be open, unwilling to learn, pretending to have access to the very source of life. When, in fact, its just alot of bs pretense.
They lay out a belief system to their flock of sheep, as if its a shortcut to god. Making themselves the leaders. They will show you the way. Just another form of a
parasite politician.
Political politicians want to lead people somewhere in the outside world. To where? It doesn't matter, the important thing is that they are the leaders. And religious politicians want to lead people of the inside world, to some other world, a world that exists somewhere after-this-life. Both together have all the bases covered. They have been exploiters of humanity for thousands of years.
Both of these types will only lead you down a dead-end street.
Please come out of your 'holier than thou' drunken stupor. Forget about the mission you are on of saving others, just try to save yourself while there is still time to enjoy what is left of your life.
