In a nutshell.
My response to the above situation would be to tell the guy to familiarize himself the qualities of a sociopath, shown below, and avoid interaction with such people -- be especially aware that the spiritual world provides excellent cover for many sociopaths who misuse concepts like Self, non-doer, and "everything is only an event ruled by cosmic law" to support their mundane and destructive manipulative behaviors. Be especially wary of any phony egoists who declares the list below is not applicable to them because of their special state of Enlightenment. Qualities of a Sociopath # Grandiose sense of self-worth # Pathological lying # Cunning/manipulative # Lack of remorse or guilt # Shallow emotions # Charismatic/superficial charm # Lack of empathy # Parasitic lifestyle # Poor behavioral controls # Narcisstic # Early behavior problems with other children # Lack of realistic, long-term plans # Promiscuous sexual behavior # Impulsivity # Failure to accept responsibility for own actions ------------------------ Yahoo!
