NOTE FOR THE SENSITIVE HEARTS: A good dose of cynicism is required to become a rich guru. Usually when a well-meaning person tries to explain to someone in which way their beliefs are false, even dangerous, the good-willing person is coming up against a solid wall. But pushing the interlocutors to ask themselves some questions do not meet the defensive stubbornness that questions asked by a third party meet. Throughout the chapters the apprentice guru learns how to find his revelation, how to make prophecies and miracles, etc. Of course, the future guru also learns to do what every cult leader does with talent: how to shear the flock. It attacks no church in particular, though sparing none, and therefore offering it to member-of-a-cult friends or relatives is not perceived as a threat, or as a criticism of their choices. The title indicates that it is a parody of the practical guides. This "guide" is a language learning tool. The linguistic level is rather low: the book uses mainly the present tense and the religious vocabulary varies very little from one language to another. And, should I say? from one religion to another.
