Gurus

If you are listening to a guru, do not listen to what he is saying. Pay attention to what he forgets to mention. What do you expect to get from an Indian guru who forgets to mention the horrors of the caste system and the misogyny in Indian spirituality?

This applies also to western spiritual teachers who change their names to Hindu names. There is no perennial wisdom. There is only perennial nonsense.
