Guru

  • Guru is not here to interpret the scriptures and books.
  • Giru brings out the possibilities within you that you by yourself may not be able to explore.
  • “gu” means darkness, “ru” means dispeller. So, the one who dispels your darkness is your Guru, because he has the necessary light within himself.
  • Do not call those who offer you solace or psychological comfort a Guru, because they only take you deeper into ignorance.
  • Anybody who encourages and sustains your limitations or tries to make you feel comfortable is definitely not your Guru.
  • Guru is somebody who threatens and destroys you the way you are, so that you can become the way the Creator intended you to be.
  • Who you are becomes so insufficient in his presence.
  • Guru is a certain space, a certain energy; it can only happen to you.
  • It is not somebody you meet. It is not somebody you shake hands with, it is not somebody you bow down to, to whom you go and beg for this or that.
  • When that space or energy happens to you, it will overwhelm you, destroy the way you are, so that you become unbounded,  the way Creator intended you to be.
