When do the spiritual teachers act like dodgy salespeople? Is this behavior ever necessary for teachers in order to benefit the student?

 

I consider dodgy salespeople as great spiritual advisors. Not because they offer good value for money or that I'm buying anything, but because their clever rationalizations and plain encouragement of greed makes it easier to see how the world is built on illusions and managing perceptions of comfort.

 

Do we have a deal yet?

Lot's of good lessons to be learned here. 

My wife sometimes says she learned parenting from doing the opposite of her parents...

A:

 

1. Ego

2. Attract more students and further enforce their egos

 

Spirituality is a PERSONAL JOURNEY. Avoid the above like the plague.

 

Teachers that pass on a legitimate and tested method to heal and bring balance to the students is a totally different story.
