Hillary,
He used the term "spiritual master" not "guru". In the proper use, "guru"
would be appropriate but today we call people gurus who are too dumb to come
in out of the rain so it isn't often a meaningful term any more.
I'd have used "Kundalini Master" and I think that was what he meant, if not
he can correct me. You can't find them on every corner, in fact FEW of the
famous teachers who've come to the West qualify. Though many are spiritual
masters, very spiriutal men and women. Of course some are just spouting
babble, trying to get laid, and make a buck. If you look and listen they are
pretty easy to spot, sort of the Earnest Angeleys of the Eastern religious
world.
A Kundalini Master actually has studied and knows the ways of Kundalini, not
just how to awaken it by a few methods but how to shift it, get it through
blockages, etc. and move it along in the least harmful manner.
If you can find one, ignoring the help of K Master and following "inner
guides" would be as advisable as do it yourself heart surgery. It takes a
very very very rare person to actually listen to a guide and know every time
when they are dealing with a real guide and not an "Iwanna" from somewhere
deep inside their subconscious. In fact when they reach that point, the are
pretty much past the point of needing the guide for K work. They are
finished or nearly so.
Namaste,
Joe
