Guest guest Posted July 6, 2009 Report Share Posted July 6, 2009 The term guru means one who dispels the darkness of ignorance. Gu means one who is beyond attributes, ru implies one who is beyond forms . This refers only to God. That is why the guru is hailed as Brahma, Vishnu, or Siva. Only God is the true guru. All others are merely teachers, like the teachers of different subjects in a college. Guru is the one who reveals the guri (target) to the disciple. Guri here refers to the Aathmic Principle. - From Swami's Guru Poornima Discourse on 20th July 1997. Love Cricket? Check out live scores, photos, video highlights and more.
