I voted YABU simply because these are the best form of entertainment. Most people are sitting smiling at them but inwardly taking the piss, but they (the gurus) really think they are having an impact. I went to school with a boy who was described by teachers as a 'likeable rogue', basically he was a very polite bad boy, got several convictions for drugs and assaulting police officers etc, but he was from a very wealthy family and his daddy bailed him out every time. He started and left about 4 university courses, before he decided to go and find himself in a tour of Asia (funded by daddy of course). He joined some sort of buddhist convent thing (not sure exactly what is was, they were buddhist but did a lot of martial arts with swords and other dangerous looking weapons). Anyway, he would post on social media about people needing to wake up and stop being sheep, and that we weren't created for the rat race, but most people couldn't see that. Walked around wearing silky pantaloons and no top on, greeting people with a namaste gesture. I fell out of touch with him until 2 years ago.
Got an invite to his engagement ceremony (hadn't seen him for twenty years!) and somehow got seated at the top table with his mother and aunts (this was just yet another example of his odd way of thinking, we weren't even close friends 2 decades earlier). He was engaged to a woman he'd met on yet another one of his 'finding myself' trips and he'd brought her here. Over dinner I found out that he'd never held down a job or course of education, and he was living in a very nice house that his father had bought him. His mother also said that the father had got him many good jobs through his contacts but he'd left every one with a different reason. I overheard him telling another mutual friend that he'd had to leave his last job within a week as his colleagues didn't share the same mindset as him, and he felt they gave too much weight to work, which didn't work for him. He would only work with other like minded people who could see the capitalist traps and snares like he could

He got married last year and I was invited yet again. Country estate this time, where he made his speech about the most important people of the day being the kitchen staff, who were invisible to us, but without them we wouldn't be fed, so we had to take a moment's silence out of respect and appreciation. His father nudged him about 10 minutes into this navel gazing pontification and reminded him to say something about the bride. He said the moment she opened the monastery door to him he knew she was the one he wanted to marry, even though her face was covered. A lot of talk about zen, chakras aligning and other nonsense, but nothing actually about the bride. He apologized to all of the guests (many of whom were wondering why they'd been invited) for not keeping in close contact, as he was incredibly busy with life. His passions took up a lot of time, and it's paramount to nourish your soul with things that bring you joy. His next venture is career coaching, so I can't wait to see how this pans out.
