Namaste everyone,

IS thank you very much for info. That is kind of information/perspective I am seeking.

EM, I in no way took your comment as Gurubashing, my response as such was to TwilightDance who brought that term into discussion. I appreciate his response too but I just wanted to know if it was experiential or assumed. I realize that, especially in USA, spirituality is a hot commodity because the choices we have had this far are not satisfying to true seekers. I am wary of fake Godmen who will waste my time and money obviously. That is why I posed this question to you my friends, humbly.

Thanks everyone for replies! If anyone else has contribution please advise.
