every community needs an asshole =)

I have a feeling that my point of view will kinda clash with a lot of the fluffy BS that passes for spirituality in these parts... like all the folks that think being enlightened has anything to do with nice behavior and being good and sweet ala Eckhart Tolle or Ramana Maharshi. Ramana Maharshi was just a really mellow dude who was enlightened, where on the other hand Nisagardatta was a chain smoking gruff shouting ass. Papaji almost ate himself into a diabetic coma - Gangaji has had plastic surgery and makes 6 six figures a year... don't even get me started on OSHO
enlightenment doesn't behave any certain way! though Andy Cohen would like to point to the contrary - but thats just his BS... =)
fact is there are no tellatale signs and its impossible to tell if someone is enlightened or not if yer unenlightened - that sucks huh?!
WHERE the PROOF?! WHERES MY ENGLIGHTENED GOODY BAG FULL OF THE POWERS I think enlightenment will bestow upon me?!!!
lets face it 99.99% of us here are just selfess assholes - we don't like the way things are and we want to change them because they upset us... makes us feel bad!
do't get me wrong nothing wrong with helping people and feeding the starving but aint no one gonna change the world - not that the world don't change - it changes all the time
it just aint in anyway yer doing for the good or the bad
