Guest guest Posted August 29, 2003 Report Share Posted August 29, 2003 The person from whose soul such impulse comes is called the Guru — the teacher; and the person to whose soul the impulse is conveyed is called the Shishya — the student. To convey such an impulse to any soul, in the first place, the soul from which it proceeds must possess the power of transmitting it, as it were, to another; and in the second place, the soul to which it is transmitted must be fit to receive it. The seed must be a living seed, and the field must be ready ploughed; and when both these conditions are fulfilled, a wonderful growth of genuine religion takes place. " The true preacher of religion has to be of wonderful capabilities, and clever shall his hearer be " — ; and when both of these are really wonderful and extraordinary, then will a splendid spiritual awakening result, and not otherwise.
