We can't judge anybody good or bad
Great yogīs and ṛṣis exist, unseen in mountains and caves. Their profound state is beyond ordinary comprehension. The true essence is Guru's grace alone. Many claim greatness, but the authentic one does not proclaim it. The ultimate gurus are the divine principles of Brahmā, Viṣṇu, and Śiva. All beings, male and female, embody Śakti and can attain this state through practice. The body is temporary; the soul journeys. The Guru is the pilot guiding all disciples. Without that grace, one is like a bird with cut wings, unable to ascend.
"Guru Kṛpā He Kevalam. If you believe and you feel this, and you do everything, and you become a Guru."
"Without Śakti, nothing will be. But they have to practice. They have to learn."
