I really appreciate this short piece. It states, in just a few words, one of my most treasured pet peeves...the ego-inflation of the guru. Those who profess to know something we don't, then preach it to us as if it were "gospel", is so assuming and even vile. What does one who is enlightened really look like? I think it looks like Mother Teresa, who worked her ass off, living in doubt of God's existence at the same time. It's not the one who is speaking words without the embodied experience of living in the gritty, messy world. Love this. Thank you!
