Guest guest Posted May 25, 2009 Report Share Posted May 25, 2009 Om Sai Ram, Thank you & well done Ashvani, for inspiring us with your spiritually enlightening emails. In Guru Vs Teacher, the simple message that a Guru imparts spiritual knowledge & upliftment is loud & clear. The guru leads us from darkness to light & from ignorance to spiritual realization. As an enlightened Hindu, I know that the path to God is only possible through the means of a spiritual Guru. May Swamis Blessings be with us all.

Sai Ram Ashvani , This is nice but I feel a little too trite and honestly not all accurateYou don't say "Disciple" so if you are simply talking about people who come to an ashram and study, work, or even live there, taking the courses etc., then your sayings aren't all so far out I mean, a Guru IS spiritually responsible for the disciple and the disciples actions and karma therefrom whilst his disciple - it is a Hugely serious matter - but that obviously does not apply at all to people who simply come and stay around; and so on down the list of your sayings Thanks - just felt it could be mentioned for helping, hope you don't mind Regards aviva Maxwell --- On Sat, 23/5/09, ashvani mathur <ashvanimathur wrote: ashvani mathur <ashvanimathur Guru Vs Teacher...
