What's you assessment of Drunvalo?

[Plenum]

He makes a living from disseminating spiritual information. The awesome stories, and I don't mean seeing angels - that's a basic and common - the awesome
stories help to establish him as an authority figure in the overall domain or theme of raising consciousness. These stories allowed his public identity to rise above
the fray of spiritual authors who still need their day job. DM succeeded in converting his hobby into career. He did what it took to get his income where he needed it
to be, doing the work he enjoys most. Without the beyond awesome stories, he never would've been able to leave his day job.....

Hi M,

I understand your point. A lot of spiritual figures cop the same criticism - that the information offered by the Creator freely, should be shared by the Creator equally freely.

apart from selling books, how else to make an income? they often do workshops and seminars for the dedicated adherents (pricey weekend getaways), or sell their own dvd's/music.

inevitably, though, becoming a 'public figure' who takes the stage involves the generation of an 'attractive persona', and a bit of salesmanship. Those who have a keen compass for the truth in all things will detect such acting very quickly - as you may have done here.

some people also privately envy those who have a platform from which to speak their ideas/truth.

oh yes, and thanks for reminding me about Thoth. I had forgotten about that!!
