      the Path of Mahamudra", published by Shambhala Publications.
+~
+  The second quality of devotion is absence of arrogance.  The arrogant
+approach is to be so passionately involved with our teacher that we become
+devotional chauvinists and cease to see the rest of the world properly.  In
+fact, we become passionately involved with our own arrogance.  We indulge our
+“devotion” by collecting information, techniques, stories, little words of
+wisdom—all to confirm our chauvinistic view.  It actually reaches a point
+that the teacher upon whom our arrogance is based himself becomes a threat.
+The absurdity is that we even end up wanting to use our collection of
+ammunition against our teacher when he begins giving our “devotion” a hard
+time.
+  If our devotion is without arrogance there is not this resentment toward the
+world or the guru.  Absence of such arrogance is absolutely necessary.  When
+courting a teacher, students frequently make a sort of detailed application,
+listing all their insights and spiritual credentials.  That is too arrogant;
+it is phony, out of the question altogether.  It is fine to offer our
+particular skills or neuroses to the guru as a gift or an opening gesture.
+But if we begin to dress up our neuroses as virtues, like a person writing a
+resumé, that is unacceptable.  Devotion without arrogance demands that we
+stop clinging to our particular case history, that we relate to the teacher
+and to the world in a naked and direct way, without hiding behind credentials.
+  -- Chögyam Trungpa, from "The Heart of the Buddha: Entering the Tibetan
+     Buddhist Path"
