      I would also recommend a quick read of http://www.amazon.com/Karma-Cola-Marketing-Mystic-East/dp/06.... It'll give you a perhaps old, but still relevant list of signs to watch out for.

      A worthwhile read for anyone who had seen “Cutting Through Spiritual Materialism” in a used bookstore or heard of the Naropa Institute. Anyone closer to these folks than that probably have heard the stories already. And, if true, what stories they are. There but for the grace...for a lot of us in the 70s. Skip the guru phase, younger generation...

      In the same vein, the book Karma Cola is still in print after at least 25 years, perhaps over 40 by now.

      Also, Shambhala Publications, that published a lot of great Asian poetry in translation and was/is based in Boulder, is not affiliated with this nonsense according to their Wikipedia page.
