I believe it's fine for people to share what they know with other people, as long as they do so in an honest manner.
My feeling is that a truly wise person wouldn't present his (or herself) as enlightened person (if there is such a thing), because he would understand that if he did so too many people would turn him into some sort of authority figure.
This World doesn't need a bunch of followers. It needs people who have enough freedom of mind to find out what's true in their own way, without getting overly involved with somebody else's approach.
Also, anybody who has been around the block with this "enlightened person" business understands that the term has been missused to a mind boggling extent, and it is best to stay away from such a way of defining (substantiating) one's self.

I think that on this board we spend a lot of time talking about the pros and cons of different guides and teachers. And, you make some valid points along the way. But, I question the idea that only HS (spirit guides) are capable of assisting others on their spiritual journeys.
Certain activities are crimes and should be investigated and taken care of in appropriate ways. However, I still feel that this does not necessarily invalidate all of the teachings.
