How Self Help Gurus Become More Successful and Popular in Real World?

Self help is the best solution to all issues surrounding human beings. Love gurus, who preached easy route to success by using the magic wands of spirituality and prescribed the addictive drugs coated in the soothing colors of holiness, eventually turned their disciples mentally challenged. People who were burdened with sufferings in their life and approached these gurus for a sudden cure ultimately realized that life itself is a big problem. Where is the cure? Can spiritual gurus heal this world of sores and sorrows?

The best way to get the cure is to find the self help. Time is not too late to save yourself from the charming love gurus calling you with the magic wand in their hand. You will read many of their versions in the so-called self-help books, most of which are ‘saffron titled’ with compelling words such as ‘timeless’, ‘ageless’, ‘salvation,’ etc. It requires only common sense to judge the practical mind behind this word game. When you go through some of the pages of these books created by these ‘successful’ (read monetarily successful) gurus, you will realize that they are no exception to the emperor in the old tale ‘The Emperor’s New Clothes.’

There is no magical way to success. Only an action can lead to a result. The governing principle of Nature holds this true. If you want to earn your life, you have to crave for it, and you have to act in a determining way. No guru can heal your wounds if he is not you. Those who promise the wealth and health through miracles are simply blinding the world to the truth and reality. This leads to frustration and agony. Ironically, people who are wounded by the love guru are left with no choice, but to approach him for further solution, because they forget to realize that there is no one on the earth who can cure them other than themselves!

Those, who have identified the self help path to success are happy, or happier than those gurus, because they are happier with what they are. Paul Damien describes in his blog, ‘Spirituality is materialism camouflaged.’ Those who preach the impracticable solution to the weak and make the society vulnerable to many negative elements need to be punished. They do not deserve any credit, which they gain exploiting the sufferings of humankind.
