Guru

Guru

There are self-proclaimed gurus everywhere

Armed with charisma, good looks, and agendas

They are ready to mislead you for a quick buck

To feed their own misguided schemes and plans that

Only serve to line their pockets

And feed their egos

Experts at manipulation

They know just how to pluck your heartstrings

And make you blind to the truth within you

There are self-proclaimed gurus everywhere

Armed with charisma, good looks, and agendas

The ancient sacred truth

And timeless knowledge lives within all of us

The purity of the truth is part of your heart and soul

Selling you their “feel good” goods

Designed simply to manipulate and feed your ego

Into thinking you are special and part of a rarefied club

There are toxic gurus everywhere

Armed with charisma, good looks, and agendas

Truth cannot be bought or sold

It can only be shared through divine love

Exhaled like a deep breath from your soul into the Universe

Let go of spiritual ego

Surrender your will

Have faith in your journey and yourself

Have the courage to accept this ancient gift

You are holy

You are sacred

You are divine

The knowledge is within you.
