Boy, I LOVE this synchronocity! This was the last part of an old piece I am about to re-purpose and share on another plaftorm:
"Many imposters love confusing you and getting you to think your persona is who you were meant to be (aka the True Self).
You would hear them say unfailingly, “you gotta love your demons! They’re part of who you are and it won’t do you any favor to resist it!”
The truth is it only serves their sick agenda. Many gurus are extremely smart troubled souls.
They rely on positive affirmations to nurture their grandiosity narrative and are almost remorseless no matter how much harm they may inflict.
Appealingly, they also know that emotionally imbalanced good people have the tendency to self-doubt and self-loathing; thus, exploit it perfectly.
By telling them how great they already are and that they merely need their mentor to guide their enlightenment path, the cycle can be endless. Please don’t allow them to win!"
