guru in western society has taken on a very wretched feel.... you know that joe..merle Merle,
Ha!, and you said my quoting "Alfie" was saccharine "hooplah". (it's Philosophical; and I quoted the lyrics in the context of your asking about God, and the meaning of Life; the song POSES those questions, and gives an Answer). But, "Tiptoe through the Tulips"? No; I'll walk down Fourth Avenue and give quarters to the panhandlers, and listen to their story. --Joe PS Guru is Sanskrit for "teacher". There is, too, the connotation of "Light": isn't that what we all phototrope towards, Merle? Is your wholesale dismissal and dis-ing of Gurus and their disciples just poetic justice? Or? There seem to be more vocal ingrate Deconstructionists here than you can shake a Kyosaku at. I find it immature and sad, in a Zen forum. And remember, Suresh here is investigating a guru; are you happy to have him read your patter? Slip of the keyboard? Or? > Merle Lester <merlewiitpom@...> wrote: > > no one is guru.... guru who? guru what?.. who is the guru's guru?
