The current situation

I'm in this once weekly situation currently, that’s pretty much out of my control, until its course is complete in another month or so. The situation is this, that it is supposed to be a very enjoyable learning experience, but there is some “ bad” energy between a couple of people who are part of the situation. It does not pertain to me on any personal level. Yet having to be around it, I am obviously also having to deal with it on some level.

I have to clarify the “bad” energy part. It’s not between the two people exactly, because that would mean both give out the same kind of vibe towards each other. It’s that party A is very reactive towards party B, and for whatever reason party B triggers party A by their sheer presence. The best part about it is, that party A claims to be enlightened and spiritual and actually walks around “preaching” about energy. Yes, I could point that out to party A, but it’s really not my place to enlighten party A about their unenlightened behavior. Party B has always remained a complete neutral stance towards party A and do not allow themselves to get pulled into any sort of reaction towards the uncalled for behavior by party A. And as if you haven’t guessed by now, party B is not proclaiming to have achieved Nirvana and telling everyone how to get there.

Which brings me to the reason why I am writing about it in the first place. Choose your “Gurus” wisely. It doesn’t matter the religious affiliation or non- affiliation. It doesn’t matter the method or the teaching. When somebody tells you how to do or become something, don’t pay them attention when they are in their so-called teaching environment, on stage per se. Pay close attention to them when they are in their natural habitat. Get it? How easy is it when you are “preaching” to be good, enlightened, nice, holding the other cheek, when you are preaching about it in the perfect environment. Nah, I stopped buying that long time ago. Show me what you got in real life and let me see how you deal with all that monkey poo that’s flying at you. Do you duck and weave graciously and still feed the poo slingers their bananas or do you sling back your own poo?
