It's not the words, but the man. Those words are timeless. Nothing new there. The issue is who is saying what.
Let's say, for the sake of example, me or anybody else goes to this guy, or Osho, or anybody... looking for help (God forbid we ever admit we need it). What would be the answers?
Gururaj bla ble bli would give yogic practices and the textual knowledge quoted above.
Osho would say that tradition is **** and make you do the dynamic meditation and then sit around him, pointing out that you need to fall in love with him to get better.
Would that fix you up. Perhaps. If not, what then? It's *** ya in the ass.
Now... a DJM, an impeccable nagual, for instance, being a pragmatic individual, wouldn't try to GUESS that you are fucked in the way he IMAGINES, but he would SEE what is the problem to the extent of his seeing and offer a pragmatic solution, instead of a one-size-fits-all technique that for some reason doesn't work with you.
A God-man aka Siddha would ask Power what you need and deliver it. Works or not, it's your problem.
Last but not least, a true taoist would look at your intrinsic nature in order to find your path-of-least-resistance towards getting better.
Take your pick.
