Guest guest Posted June 1, 2006 Report Share Posted June 1, 2006 Any normal human being wants a Satguru (Lord in human form), a Satguru expects a Sat-sishya (true disciple), who wants to serve Him without any desire. When one is desirous of lord only without selfish intention, He will definitely find Him (human form) only. Our pious desire attracts Him and our selfish bad odour repels Him Going to Satguru (Lord in human form) is not for erecting empires and dynasties on earth, in which case we are not eligible to go near to Him. Mostly people love Lord for their desires to be fulfilled. If something goes wrong or if things are out of control then we rush to lord and start prayers etc. This devotion is like a prostitute loving her customer. If one really loves Lord without any desire, then only Lord will be pleased. When a beggar approaches us, we generally offer him whatever is least useful to us. But, when a relative comes to our house, we provide him with good food, facilities and even ask him to stay for some more time. Why is the difference in our approach? Beggar comes to us for what we give. He is not having any love on us. Whereas a relative has not come for our food and facilities, he has come to see us. This shows the love. So, our approach to Lord should be with love and affection as relative but not like beggar, who approaches us only for satisfying the desires. We should not worship lord only to satisfy our desire. Prayers by words, meditation by mind and intelligence in spiritual discussions form a preliminary level of worship. The devotee should search for a Satguru or Lord in human form (like Jesus, Krishna and Prophet Mohammed) to learn the divine knowledge. After gaining the divine knowledge from the Lord in human form, at His directive only he should participate in His service in the mission. His mission is to uplift the human beings by preaching the divine knowledge. Service consists of donating money and physically participating in His mission of divine knowledge propagation. Such real service is the only proof of our real love towards Lord. We are serving our family by spending hard earned money for them and also serving physically. Where as when we come to Lord, we express our love by prayers, meditation and spiritual discussions only, which are given freely by Lord to everybody. Hence God is not even comparable to family members but in prayers we project Him on top. posted by: His servant at the lotus feet of shri datta swami www.universal-spirituality.org Hur <hur wrote: Nisargadatta , " roberibus111 " <Roberibus111 wrote: > Jesus insisted that no follower of his deal should call himself > teacher. The Indian term 'guru' is often translated into 'teacher', but it means further things as well, and 'teacher' is not even its central meaning. Accordingly, what about the term 'jagadguru'? Is it from How low will we go? Check out Messenger’s low PC-to-Phone call rates. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
