A humble, yet majestic, Indian guru sat cross-legged, telling his followers that "everything you seek is within you".
There were about 100 people seated around him.
A young man, who had obviously traveled thousands of miles to be there, started asking a question by first telling the guru that he meditated, did yoga, ate raw foods, and several other rituals he performed daily.
The young man then asked, "Do you think I am close to being enlightened?"
The guru sat silent for a few moments, as everyone sat anxiously awaiting his reply.
He allowed the suspense to build, then he exclaimed, "That is the biggest Bullshit I have ever heard!"
This guru has just finished telling a hundred people that everything they seek is within them.
They don't have to look any further. Yet they had flown from around the globe to see him.
How long will you look for what is right inside of you, right now?
Do you consider this type of thinking powerful or, to use the guru's words, bullshit?
