Man alive, what a scold. Sounds like Nightmare Nanny.
Does tantric discipleship mean we become the guru's property, to be used, mauled
and disposed of?
Anyone not trustful of Uma would say "Yuck!" and walk away.
Friends,
How does Uma get people to trust her so that they ignore misgivings and become willing to to obey this New Age nagging?
Are Uma's introductory classes like this?
Do her disciples describe her this way when chatting up possible new recruits?
Most of us, if we arrive in (say) Bali, or some other lovely
destination, especially a spiritual destination, do not go looking for misery,
terror and betrayal.
We are looking for love, friendship, looking for opportunities to bring out
what is best in us. To see the best in others.
Wanting to see the best in others is what makes us decent, kindly and trusting human beings.
If we are spiritual seekers we do not (Ken Wilber to the contrary) throw away our
human rights toleave when we feel disgusted or scared, and we do not lose our human right to be told in the beginning whether other students have been harmed and just what will be demanded of us.
We are human beings, not energy donors.
Someone who feeds on energy and does not reciprocate -- and calls us egotistical and toxic because we take exception to this:
That is scary.
