In the case of Amber, she switched Guru's and she went exactly through this kind of inner guidance *with* a teacher (Gangaji) I was talking about. All glory to her and her guru. I have no objection if somebody breaks away. I myself broke away. Maybe some break away in the process of getting enlightened - fine, so much so the better. But it doesn't mean that when you break away you get enlightend or spiritually more mature (whatever that means.) I wasn't speaking about not breaking away. I was speaking about the situation when you are still *with* a Guru. Maybe 'spiritually mature' is just a surrogat, giving meaning to your disillussionment. Whatever you wanted in the first place didn't work out, so you feel that you have advanced in some other ways.
