It is possible when she gets into bigger trouble and the dream of a beautiful career "with divine guidance of the guru and divine plan" ends. Of course when the "guru" who wants to follow her goes back to his own guidance and rejects her - that would be a better factor that could shake her out of this stupidity.

When someone is a narcissist - especially difficult. Narcissistic guru, narcissistic parents. After all, Senor Mike constantly creates himself, advertises himself. Attached to self-creation, promotion. Narcissism in daddy, less in mommy, narcissistic "guru" whose own mistakes forced him to avoid the world. From which he had the opportunity to leave many times but strangely sits in his hole and does not want to leave.

On the promise of happiness you can travel a little, invest a little. Credit like that. Readiness to sacrifice. Happiness fever, gold fever, fever of promises of communism etc.
Time passes, bitter fruits come and a hard landing.7

But you can dig him a tunnel to the garden, which he will want to escape through when the men of the man he accused of being the godfather of local crime come to get him. This self-exalting hero will choose the tunnel over chanting mantras... After all, it's better to climb a tree than to have faith that God in the heart of a lion or a mafioso's people will drive them away...

Some former believers in Poland spoke of visions of being born in a dimension that was energetically matched, in a place where there was still light but full of dark trees, where there was a sense of lurking cruel entities attacking from the side. They also had visions of underground, dark dimensions. Shallow underground or deep underground where steel bars separated them from fully demonic boots. But these were already undergrounds full of dirt.
