I am going to say the thing nobody has said yet. That bit about feeling so pulled you could listen to them all day without stopping, half the women in my chair described exactly that to me about a man they spent four years untangling from. The pull is real. I am just not sure it tells you much about him.

In spiritual path one of the most important thing is finding your guru.
Why is it important to find your guru on spiritual journey?
See before achieving the state of enlightenment which is not a big thing at all. New traveler who wants to travel this journey of spirituality to reach their home, they strongly needed a good guidance.
So who can give them guidance? It's not only about spiritual path in every aspect of life too. You can make someone guru who already advanced to that path which you want to accomplish.
On spirituality for newcomers the most important thing should be to find guru.
How one can find their guru.
The most easy technique is to lesson your inner voice and how you feel towards that guru. Here intelligence is not important but what actually important is your attraction towards to that particular guru. I will explain why intelligence isn't good but your attraction is good for finding the guru.
If you feel highly attracted to that guru then it means that is your guru. If you can lesson to them all day without stopping without any rest. If you feel like this person have something or this person know something about spirituality which I also want to know. Or something like I want to be like this person.
So your attraction towards that particular entity know as guru is much more important compared to what your intelligence is telling you. Because finding your guru is about attraction because your causal body work on law of attraction. That body took life form because of attraction itself. This is why impressions which is store in your causal body will make you feel much more attracted towards that particular guru.
Because you see you can learn from many different persons the same knowledge. Like many different people can tell you about knowledge the same way others do. But in end you will feel more attracted towards a particular special one. That special one is your guru.

Thank you for putting that down. Hearing the same thing from many people and only one of them staying with you, I do recognise that much.

The causal body and the law of attraction is a fair bit of machinery to arrive at you will know him when you meet him. Which I suspect is true, mind you. Just as true in my flat as in a monastery.

Ten people can hand you the same knowledge and only one of them pulls. That is the piece of this I keep turning over, because it is true of books too, and of the one teacher out of twenty that anybody still remembers years later. Attraction over intelligence is a harder standard than it sounds. Do you have more of these written down anywhere?

Does the state corrupt the Church more than the Church ever corrupts the state?
Constantine's church became an instrument of imperial politics within a generation. Franco's bishops became collaborators in child theft. Patriarch Kirill blesses wars. The question is not whether you will gain political influence. The question is what will be left of what you started with once the people who wanted the influence are done with it.

Should we judge Christianity against what came before it, not against what it built?
One of the stranger habits of modern discussion is that Christianity is often judged exclusively against twenty-first-century moral standards while its alternatives are judged against the Christianity that helped shape those standards in the first place. This does not mean Christianity is innocent of wrongdoing. Religious wars happened. Churches accumulated power. Christians persecuted one another. Any honest reading of history has to acknowledge that. The question is whether Christianity made…

Did Catholic monotheism make the universe safe to study?
It is easy to tell the story of science as a clean break from religion. Enlightenment replaces superstition, observation replaces faith, reason replaces authority. It sounds tidy, and it flatters modern assumptions. But it misses something more interesting and, honestly, more uncomfortable for that narrative: the idea that the universe is intelligible in the first place is not self-evident. It is a metaphysical claim. And Catholic monotheism is one of the major historical reasons that claim…

Were people really any dumber in the past?
There is a habit in modern thinking that treats the past as a kind of half-awake state, as if the Age of Enlightenment woke us up. People imagine ancient societies as crowded with superstition, as if belief itself was less disciplined before modern science arrived to rescue it. It is a comforting story because it makes the present feel like an intellectual peak rather than just another arrangement of limits and assumptions.

Why does Silicon Valley talk about death like it's a software bug?
One of the clearest signs that modern secular elite culture is uneasy about death is how Silicon Valley talks about it. The human body is treated like legacy hardware waiting for an upgrade. In place of acceptance, you get optimization: longevity startups, cryonics, extreme biohacking, and constant speculation about whether enough computation and biotech might eventually defeat death itself. Tech billionaires talk with pride about potentially transferring their consciousness to a computer, as…

Is therapy just confession with the theology stripped out?
One of the funniest things about secular modern culture is watching people reinvent Christianity piece by piece while acting intellectually superior the entire time. People abandoned confession and now pay someone $240 plus taxes an hour to listen to them describe their guilt in a softly lit room. They abandoned sin and replaced it with "unprocessed trauma." They abandoned repentance and replaced it with "doing the work." They abandoned examination of conscience and replaced it with journaling…

Does literalism flatten the Bible into a mere manual?
One of the strangest assumptions in modern literalist readings of Scripture is the idea that the Bible should be treated as if it were a single kind of document with a single interpretive key. As if it were a legal contract where every clause must be enforced uniformly, or a scientific paper where every sentence is meant as a precise empirical claim, or a recipe book where the point is simply to follow instructions exactly as written.
