How we each choose to serve the world is our own affair. Love is very much a part of my path, be assured. The end my teacher promotes is God. No more, no less. Cults have always formed around mystics after their death--look at Christianity, the biggest cult on the planet... That's how the mind works... If you're implying that I belong to a cult, then please stop implying it.
IMO, the best thing one can do for someone stuck in this world's consciousness is to give them the keys out of it, and if they don't know how to leave the body, they can't go back to God while still living here. This is a prison, and the inmates are the walking dead, as Jesus called them. A minute of focused meditation does more for the world than feeding the hungry in the streets of Calcutta for 10 years.
