Gurus and teachers and individuality

My journey so far has invlolved a lot of traditions, disciplines and healing techniques.

One thing that has always lead to conflicts is involvement with teachers.

The thing about teachers is they tend to view themselves as superior and stuff flows from them to the student.

Also it requires money and money has a tendency to corrupt things.

The groups around teachers get to have a certain kind of group think that hinders self-development.

So everytime I enter a group a certain discomfort start to arise after some time.

Anyway, I have learned a lot from the interaction with various teachers and so far I can tell they are all human with faults etc which they have all themselves recognized.

I am also working on my own blockages around groups and teachers so to clear any conditioning but just clearing any conditioning is not enough. A deep respect for your own individuality is necessary and that is why ultimately any framework presented will always be flawed because it requires giving up your uniqueness to follow the crowd.

Individuality is an expression of oneness through our body and personality etc. Trying to suppress your personality is like fitting your shoes wrongly and keep pushing them to fit. It won't work.
