Religious authorization is no guarantee of ultimate truth. All teachers expound what they have inherited form their gurus. Seekers of truth have to be very cautious about working with anyone who calls himself a "guru or teacher. The one who speaks of individual god, scriptures and religion is not a spiritual but religious. Religious knowledge will not yield wisdom. Gnani is the one who knows the soul is the true self and bases his-self on the soul. People pretending to be Gnanis and claiming themselves to God are certainly frauds.
Only the frauds claim to be "fully enlightened." Seekers of truth have to be beware of those people who ooze charisma and are worshiped by their disciples. The best teachers never call themselves as teachers are the most ordinary ones. The true teachers are those who say they are not teacher or guru and say there is no teacher, there is no disciple and there is no teaching, and inspire and share their knowledge and guide them as fellow seeker.
