Truth about Enlightened Masters that have Money

orgorgcomA question was asked: Why do enlightened masters have many followers, that contribute thousands of dollars, in order to build temples, buy luxurious cars, and wear jewelry?There are many so-called enlightened masters, fake gurus, and fake spiritual teachers. They make a fool of those people that contribute to their causes.A real enlightened master is above all materialistic desires, including fame, money, and jewelry.These so-called enlightened masters and fake spiritual teachers emphasize to their following of the need of building temples, places of worship, and charge money to enter their ashram, in order to buy themselves popularity and wealth.A true enlightened master does not need these things.Great masters like Buddha and Mahavir, taught under trees and in the nature delivering their messages to awaken the soul. They didn't need temples, need luxurious cars, and wear jewelry to attract the real seeker.The seekers are trapped by these so-called fake gurus. They are not learning the truth they are seeking, because they are trapped in the small box of bad traditions and religious teachers.The messages of Spirituality and Enlightenment are free to ALL. No one should have to pay to get access to information.Acharya Shree Yogeesh condemns those that claim themselves to be enlightened, yet are materialistic.For example, he mentions the guru that lives in the United States that has nearly 100 luxurious car. He mentions, Anand Murti, also known as Gurumaa, for her wearing of gold jewelry. He names Swami Vishwananda for wearing diamond earings. He also, refers to the Swamis that wear BIG rudraksha beads (mala beads) that wears the Bindhi in order to show-off his "enlightenment."Acharya Shree mentions that Westerners get trapped by these fake gurus, and can never learn what they are really seeking.Temples, cars, and jewelry do not lead the seeker to Truth. Look at your own heart, and see if your enlightened teacher is really REAL.
