SPIRITUAL SCAMS

If it is modern

If the person has a pony tail

If it promises "happiness"

If the word love is used more than three times

If there is a brochure and a billboard

If there is a conference in its name

If the word "group" or "workshop" is used

It is a Scam.
If "mindfulness" is spoken of

If the person has changed his name to a Hindu name such as "Bhagwan"

If it is available to one and all

If it is easily accessible

If it promises "awakening"

If there is a retreat

If it is an "institution" or a "foundation"

It is a Scam.
If there are "five-steps"

If "practice" is required

If gongs are used

If the words "to match your unique needs" are used

If the phrase "personal growth" is employed

If the website is elaborate, outlining numerous workshops, sites, and photos of smiling people

It is a Scam.
If the word "empowerment" is used

If the phrase "spiritual warrior" is used

If there are DVD's, modules, and exercises

If the website has a "store"

If there is a "staff"

If there are "certified instructors"

It is for the Unserious.

It is an Entertainment.

It is a Scam.

PROBLEMS OF THE BUSINESS LEADER

As can be gleaned from my recent Q and A for business leaders,

Business leaders succumb to all manner of problems.

They have been conditioned by experts to believe that these problems are "business-related."
Thus, they higher experts, business coaches, and advising teams to solve their "business-related problems."

The business leader who hires such experts, coaches, and teams has bought into various notions

Even before he hires such people.
Notions he does not even recognize that he has bought into.

And even upon hearing this, he still does not get the point.

Because for all of his life he has been conditioned by the "expert culture" to think a certain way.

HAPPY STORM

A recent interview between @andrewrsorkin and @elonmusk was brought to my attention.
There is much to say about this interview. And I may (or may not) write more about it later.

This interview is a shining illustration of human conditioning, interpersonal human dynamics and so many other things.
One of the prime examples of human conditioning and mass brainwashing relates to the notion of "happiness."

The spiritual, self-help, philosophical, and new age movements have for centuries encouraged, propagated, and championed the notion of "happiness."

WEALTH, SUCCESS, AND THE PURSUIT

Is there a benefit to being Wealthy and Successful.

There is a massive benefit.

The benefits are, in fact, innumerable.

However . . .
Those benefits exist purely upon a material plane.

The benefits, thus,

Are all Material benefits.
Is this important.

Nothing is important unless the human believes it is important.

And because humans value things beyond materialism

It can, then, be said to be important.

Humans enjoy giving advice.

Parent to child.

Friend to friend.

Spouse to spouse.

Person to strangers.

Author to reader.

Speaker to audience . . .
Why shall anyone give advice

To anyone.

Particularly if it is unsolicited.
Of what value

Is advice.
