I’m not sure if I’ve told you but the ‘Urban Guru’ is simply a myth, it is a realm of enlightened tranquillity and transparent awareness that exists in a state of potential within each and every urban dweller. It just happens to be that the Urban Guru in me has become manifest that I use the honourable title.

But you, also have the ability to create a serene personal utopia, within your current life, to become your own Urban Guru, to travel within the city without moving, to swim in an ocean of pure cosmic intelligence, to realise the divine nature of your very being with every single moment, with every single breathe.

But there is a bloody war on; it is a spiritual war to free or keep captive, the Urban Guru within you. To allow yourself to become all that you are destined to be, or to remain in a state of dull, stressed, mediocrity.

This battle has been prophesised by many cultures and it has been given different names; Holy War, Jihad, Shamhhala, Amalek, Armageddon, but ultimately all the mystical traditions explain that the great battle is a personal spiritual war.

One of these noble traditions explains that in order to create your personal utopia, the campaign you must wage is for the annihilation of your own internal cynicism.

Internal cynicism is the only thing stopping you truly living the life of your dreams, of becoming extremely successful, of living in your own version of heaven on earth.

To annihilate cynicism, you must become a something of a Jedi Knight, Sámi-Warrior and Buddhist monk, finding peace and stillness within, trusting the unfolding of life, armed with a powerfully loving heart and protected by a potent psychic shield.

Learn to relax, give yourself permission to trust and believe in yourself completely. Give yourself the opportunity to be open to the unknown within you, to all that is good and innocent in you.

When you reach that place you will realise that; You are the Urban Guru!

Guru Shmooru

I don’t believe in Gurus, Teachers, Messiahs, Rabbis, Priests or Healers - I believe that each of us are ultimately our own teachers, messiahs, etc…

as I’ve said before:

“There is no Messiah, except the messiah that says you are your own messiah!”

If you believe in a Guru, you give your power away to them, you don’t look within for the answers, you loose touch with yourself and ultimately it’s a form of spiritual idolatry!

So give up your searching for the answer, stop looking outside of yourself for the answers you know deep down are within you.

Loose your gurus, let them go!

Look in your mirror and behold the true, the real, the only true answer you will ever get - Behold YOU are the Urban Guru!

Sorry but it’s true!

Enlightenment, can be found on the side of a cornflakes box or never discovered learning all the sacred writings.

The Urban Guru blog hopes to be a good balance of Cornflake box reading mixed with a little sacred writing.
