No Guru, No Method, No Teacher?

Wednesday, December 09, 2009
Bit of a break in travel stories to bring you this bit of poetic goodness from Persian poet Hafiz:

The words guru, swami, super swami, master,
teacher, yogi, murshid, priest -- most of those
sporting such a title are just peacocks.

The litmus test is to hold them upside down
over a cliff for a few hours. If they don't wet
their pants ... maybe you found a real one.




And, maybe you don't need to look outside of you...regardless of whether or not you'd wet your pants.
