“The goal of many leaders is to get people to think more highly of the leader. The goal of a great leader is to help people to think more highly of themselves.” — J. Carla Nortcutt
There are many self-proclaimed spiritual leaders vying for our attention (and our resources) and seeking to lead us. Many have great charm and strength of character, but does that mean they have spiritual awareness? We should not mistake charisma for spiritual enlightenment or we may end up following a magnetic leader whose spiritual message isn’t valid. To evaluate a spiritual leader, we must also evaluate his or her message. Is it based on universal love? Does it place the spiritual above the material? Is it of the ego or of the divine Self? And, above all, does it call forth our own divinity?
