Guest guest Posted January 26, 2002 Report Share Posted January 26, 2002 Jaya Guru Datta, Here is today's saying: “External purification is must and necessary. About two thousand years ago, it was different. But this Kaliyuga is different. In that golden age, a strong Sankalpa was enough to purify the mind and body. Both mind and body were powerful. But it is not so now. The present Manas is a servant of the Indriyas [ senses]. Kaayaka [body] purification is necessary. That is why physical seva of Guru is necessary. later come the Mantra Siddhi[accomplishment] then comes Mantra Deeksha [vow.]" Sri Swamiji GURU PURNIMA Speech, 30 July 1996 http://www.dattapeetham.com/india/talks/gurupurnima96.html Sri Guru Datta, Swamiji Says Suggest a quote for this week's Swamiji Says!
