GIFT Nº 3: THE GURU AUDIO BOOK OF BORROWED WISDOM
GURU DILEMNA: As a Guru, are you always being asked to utter snippets of universal wisdom at tech conferences, Instagram Influenza parties, political rallies, or at the opening of new supermarkets? It’s not always easy to come up with the appropriate mystical cliche, despite the presence of a swinging pony-tail. or your Bluetooth Incense Set. There is, however, another answer — The Guru Audio Book of Borrowed Wisdom. This eclectic set of quotes comes in all spoken audio formats with the voice of your choice:
*Groucho Marx
*Gary (Slow Horse) Oldman
*Carl Sagan
*David Carradine
PLUS! A free set of bluetooth in-beard-phones that activate using any one of the following phrases:
“Thank you for inviting my esteemed self here today in order to alleviate your spiritual and economic suffering ...”
“As my Guru said in private to me, just before he ascended to the heavens of immortality on the back of a crane….”
“As I wrote in my 3rd autobiography — now available as a holographic audio-box set on Amazon…”
As Gandhi and I would often joke…”
Siri — or your chosen AI assistant — will then automatically transmit to the beard-phones a random quote from Thoreau, Bruce Lee, Dalai Lama, Ekhart Tolle, Alan Watts, Tommy Shelby or Tommy Cooper. Just move your lips and pretend it is you speaking!
Clinically proven under laboratory conditions, the Guru Audio Book of Borrowed Wisdom will have your fans queuing up for a signed selfie before you have even begun to applaud yourself.
