		<description><![CDATA[Agreed.  Raw and base ego in these men destroy what can be....or should be...and transcending experience.

Power:  we have so much of it.....inside ourselves.  I am constantly amazed at the creativity and inspiration that is accessible to each of us. To me, this is the real power that should be cultivated.

Power that demeans, oppresses, destroys, discards, taints, etc.  is along the lines of Evil.  And the presence of Evil is soul-destroying beyond many other sorrows.

		<description><![CDATA[There is always more chance of failed men using the word &quot;Guru&quot; or &quot;Master&quot; for the sake of ego and power than there is of something true and pure. It was for this reason that I was so closed off to Dragon - I didn&#039;t want to submit totally, particularly to a &quot;man&quot; who does not follow any conventional social idiom. It was difficult to tell, so I resisted. In the end, I realize I was extremely fortunate. I also realize that many may not be able to relate to the experience... the word &quot;Guru&quot; is not a word to be used lightly, and for every 0.0001 percent who is true, there is the other 99 percent who are not.]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[Hello.  You experienced a very different situation.  What I experienced was hatred. This Jerry Golick who positioned himself as an all-knowing &quot;Dom&quot; was a man who basically hated a lot of people.  He was an Orthodox Jew and hated Christians, Germans, etc.  We can see that much of his mentality was fear: Being fearful of Germans, Germany is obviously something deep because of a particular period in history.

Beyond that, though....he was nothing but a liar.  He demanded respect, just because he existed, and because HE was a man...this whole &quot;Man superior, Woman inferior&quot; jazz was this silly concept derived from a series of books written in the 70&#039;s by John Norman.

Any man who has such contempt for women is skirting on the edges of homosexuality, and he was a sad product of a very unattractive man physically.  He couldn&#039;t  rise above his physical aspect here obviously.  
He tooted that he was a sexual sadist, and his behavior made this aspect of his behavior pretty obvious.

There is a lot of bullshit in the BDSM world and the behavior around D/s.  It is, in the end, a very troubling and dangerous issue.  I don&#039;t think that what you are explaining in your essays has anything really to do with this type of defilement of the human spirit.  Some men, like our Jerry, just are led by their own failings and hatred. This has nothing to do with Guru.  It has to do with raw, unrefined ego.

In the end, though it took a lot of work on my part with women who were &#039;wise&#039; to this behavior, I understood  he was nothing but a sociopath: a narcissist, a hater of humanity and a sad example what a man could be.

Under the words of &#039;enhancement&#039; I found a man willing and able to strip all the good out of a woman because of his own problems.  I was very fortunate: I was stronger than him, firmer in my own abilities for good. One hour in his presence revealed what he was all about.  It was sad and shocking.  I was fortunate to learn but not without wounds.

Had I not experienced this creature and what he attempted to do, I probably would not be able to discern this evil in  human nature. I certainly don&#039;t want to do this exercise again.

He was a trifler.  The human spirit is to be protected, but creatures like this are only sad destroyers.  They want others, men and women to believe they are &#039;gurus&#039; but they are empty of any promise except to confuse and dismay.

That&#039;s what you get when you look for &#039;gods&#039; outside yourself.
