My feeling of "good"ness in a guru - is based on his/her message and how the followers embrace it by and large .. I dont judge a guru based on bad apples! India must conquer the World and nothing less than that is my ideal - Swami Vivekananda | ||

 do you realize what an irrational stmt that is ? Question everyone and everything - it's a good trait Mona UT lo Science honors open house attend ayyanu - the dean is a physicist and he was talking to the select kids saying the most important trait of a scientist is they ask interesting questions - answers are nothing but stepping stones to the next interesting question - loved the guy and the science program they have put togetherThe foolish man seeks happiness in the distance; the wise grows it under his feet : James Oppenheim | ||

 I have told you guys many times read the post - not what 'you' think I feel Philosophy has been an interest and I have been discussing for a long time - from all angles...which irritates the rigid believers and non-believers A definitive rigid stance either way - that all gurus are out to scam you or all gurus are godly is counterproductive to inquiry ... And I objected to the rigidity in Aha's question of "ardham unda" - logic ardham chesukoni then evaluate ani cheppataniki post chesanu You can like or not after reading the rationale but atleast find out before you judge ani The foolish man seeks happiness in the distance; the wise grows it under his feet : James Oppenheim | ||

I guess by that you mean there are no scams, cheating, etc. etc allegations on her - have not really followed the news but I have not read any either... But the "good"ness of a guru is in the eyes of the follower - what the follower learns, experiences in the presence of the guru...to the follower it becomes irrelevant what other stuff the guru has done BTW Kish let me disabuse you some more ... I do like listening to what these "spiritual leaders" have to say.. I attend lectures when I can -and I have discussed many of them here in the past Do I go because I believe they hold the key to my enlightenment - NO But I am interested in learning the different perspectives...The foolish man seeks happiness in the distance; the wise grows it under his feet : James Oppenheim | ||

Ordinary kaka nettimeeda emanna kommulu unnayi anukunnara ? Did I defend anything ? I gave the rationale for her hugging as I do not see that as something that needs to be criticised... Naku ee roju varaku oka guruvu kavali ane need anipinchaledu - I do not seek a guru - so nammatam nammakapovatam is moot But I think I have said before - we had holy men coming and going in my grandmothers house, mom will go to anyone wearing kashayam - so have a lot of exposure to them - and not all of them are scamsters The foolish man seeks happiness in the distance; the wise grows it under his feet : James Oppenheim | ||

There is a slight difference If it is only our humility - it should not be dependent on the stature of the person on the receiving end. The minute you are evaluating if the other person deserves your pranam - it is an evaluation of superiority The foolish man seeks happiness in the distance; the wise grows it under his feet : James Oppenheim | ||

I get what you are saying and Japanese concept telidu kani Namaskaram is also a symbol of respect to the divinity in you - as a human we bow to the divine in the other - and they reciprocate - but in principle the transaction is between human and divine, not two equals We are culturally very hierarchical But padabhivandanam lo reciprocation undadu kada it is a taboo - peddavallu chinnavalaki pedite aayuksheenam type chala nammakalu unnayi The foolish man seeks happiness in the distance; the wise grows it under his feet : James Oppenheim | ||
