Gentle Warning

[Guest guest]

Dear Brothers & Sisters,

People will tell you all kinds of stories about gurus

and their activities. Some of these may be valid, some

not. We have NO way to validate these stories!

 

A word of advice to those absolutely bent on "hating"

a particular Guru: Ammachi forgives even her enemies

since she is the epitome of compassion.

 

Other Gurus may NOT be so forgiving of people that say

or spread false rumors about them or have hatred

against them in their hearts.

 

Therefore, if you do not have first hand experience

with a particular Guru, do NOT hate them within your

being. The best course is to remain NEUTRAL. Neither

like nor dislike. This is especially true when stories

such as these are floating around.

 

Do a search on the web and you will find a lot of

mud-slinging going on. Agreed, there are definitely

some fake gurus, but who are you to judge them if you

never met them!

 

Who knows, if the person you hate has real powers and

is not so forgiving of such insults, then it may not

be in your best interests...!

 

The same is true of religion. Lets face it, some of us

find particular religions and religious habits

annoying! If we were to let people follow their own

path to realise God and give them the "space" in our

hearts to do as they wish, we would not be close to a

war as we are today.

 

In summary, do not hate a particular guru or religion

just because someone told u something about that guru

or religion. Listen carefully and attentively to what

they have to say and move on.

 

I write this out of concern for all of you. Please

keep it in mind.

 

May the divinity in you guide you.
