Guest guest Posted September 16, 2003 Report Share Posted September 16, 2003 OM Somesh Siddapura Math I agree with you entirely. Each of us is already in contact with Brahman. The problems are (1) that most of us don't recognize this and (2) those of us that do recognize this connection do not have the strength and discipline to maintain and enhance that connection without the guidance of a piritual path and Guru. Yes, in the end one leaves behind the Guru too. Any Guru who tells you this is not so is not an authentic Guru. The Guru's job is to create in you the conditions to experience Brahman directly and constantly. But He/She can only guide you, the actual work is up to you.

One also has to drop 'Guru' in the end because Guru can also be an attachment. I strongly believe that in each one of us there is a light, a thread that is in direct communion with the Brahman already. It is just that we should try to be in touch with that part of ourselves that is already in communion with the Brahman or for that matter, which is already a Brahman. It is that light in each of us that can take us to that eternity. Guru invokes the light in us. The light takes us further. > > By the way, I havn't found a Guru yet. > > Regards, > > Somesh Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
