Gurus - one thought

[Guest guest]

When you want to cross river (seek knowledge) use a boat (guru) till you reach

the other bank (knowing). But once you reach there you are not expected to

carry along the boat with you in the further journey.

 

Gurus are like flowing rive. You drink as much water as you can depending on

your capcity and thrist.

accept good from everywhere and rejectunwanted.Discretion is important.As you
