Guest guest Posted June 21, 2004 Report Share Posted June 21, 2004 Question from Latha : What are the kinds of questions that a student can ask a Guru to know if the teacher is the right Guru for them ? Swamiji's response : There are various intensities that we are searching for in our relationships. The Guru is someone we want to allow inside, we trust to allow ourselves to be completely vulnerable, whose example is one that we respect and want to emulate.

Guest guest Posted June 21, 2004 Report Share Posted June 21, 2004 Thank you Swamiji for this wonderful answer. The relationship with the Guru is a Divine Love Affair that is eternal. I feel that is why there are instructions to the student to look carefully and test the Guru. But then there are cases where it is just "love at first sight" and one's spiritual intuition lets one know that this Guru is the One you have been seeking.
