Guest guest Posted December 18, 2001 Report Share Posted December 18, 2001 "Guru, the Lord of jnana, who is the power of the unlimited greatness of the Self, is the supreme silence that completely defeats the worthless arguments of those who are stained with the delusion of worldly desires. Without killing the body, but by killing, with the glance of his eyes, the ego that poses as if it were really existing, the Guru in no time exposes all unrealities as nonexistent, and reveals the shining of the one Supreme Self as the only real existence. It is impossible to see the divine dance of Self-knowledge in the Heart until the dance of the rebellious mind is destroyed by the divine power of the sword of true knowledge, wielded by the great hero, the Sadguru who has already beheaded [his own] ghost, the mind." (Muruganar: Guru Vachaka Kovai, vv. 280-2 in Godman: Power of the Presence, part one, p. 104) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
