It uses all the typical marketing gimmicks to attract followers. I was wondering whether there is any use to spirituality in such business gurus, or do they mostly cause harm?
Spiritual evolution has been going on since some time now. Its eventual purpose is to evolve humanity beyond the vital-mental man he now is to the spiritual and eventually the divine superhumanity of the future. Until now, this spiritual evolution was confined to a few prominent personalities who tried to communicate it to the followers who almost invariably reduced it to a Religion with mental rules and regulations. Nevertheless, mankind has now reached a stage when a relatively large number of human beings are ready or getting prepared to go beyond the human to the next spiritual evolution. Right now this process of spiritual evolution has got accelerated and hence we see an explosion of spiritual seekers as well as all kinds and varieties of spiritual gurus. All this is part of the great spiritual experiment started in the early sixties. This will go on for some time until, through all these experimentations and the experiences, mankind is ready at large for the greater spiritual evolution and the breaking away from the rational mental man to the higher spiritual kind.
Naturally the past still weighs heavily and hence commerce and other motives have entered as a mixture. But all this, including these movements are a passing phase. It will all clear off, giving way to the true deeper spiritual life evolving into a new species moved by the light of intuition in the mind, compassion and love in the heart and the Divine Force in life and speech and actions.
The evolution of Ape into human being took similar steps: animal-man, human-animal (still quite a few), human proper. The same rule will apply from the mentalised humanity to the spiritual and the supramental race.
