If I change our need to spot the dominant member of the apes, to our
need to feel good, what you have said here also applies to drinking or
doing drugs. If it is all just a self serving feel good fest to be
enjoyed in moderation, why bother with a guru at all? Go get
your 'guru' in a six pack at the 7-11. There's nothing in what you
said to convince anyone there is any higher purpose served by a
Guru...and that says more about your post, than your post does.:-)
