185. Unctuous

Madal:

Chinmoy, do you have any disciple whose unctuous manners bother you?

Chinmoy:

Madal, to my deepest sorrow, I have more than one. The oily and flattering manners of those particular disciples torture my heart, but I must say that they are improving. Simplicity, sincerity and spontaneity are slowly invading them!
