My comments, coming from my path will mirror that of Ramana Maharishi's admonisions. Regarding a mentor or Guru, it is 100% that one will need this for unfolding enlightenment. Some very rare one's will do it on their own. It is ego which declares a Guru is not needed, or even I am that rare one - after all, Ramana did it this way and so can I. Why? because one in darkness needs light- and the light is just not there. If it were, then one wouldn't be in darkness.The Guru is the one that has traversed the journey from start to Realization, having gone through it, they are the light to show others. In my path, it is not that they desire to be guru or step forward to do so, they are commissioned by their own Guru's to do so.
