If the guy is saying not to look to masters/gurus/teachers for the truth, why are people so anxious to lay that on the Wingmakers cosmology , which is a story like any other story, any other myth?? I fail to see what's new and different about this.

Anything you can wrap your mind around (or not) is supposedly NOT the goal, so why bother taking the myth seriously when the very point of the entire myth is to go within and find silence?

I believe this goal is not new. He even claims that anyone making money from their teachings are not to be trusted. Hmm. 33 x 21 prints of Wingmaker paintings go for $150 a pop.

I have nothing against the Wingmakers-I'm just being as discerning as to what I got from the interview. I also feel certain points he made were valid and true for me. But I don't think it's necessary to jump on any bandwagon, no matter what.
