So when I learn untruths, it is not guru who is teaching me, it is maya tricking me into a false belief.Guru is he who iluminates darkness, not she who casts shadows, also known as Maha Maya. Dear Brian ~ it is interesting that you make this disctinction and I'm glad that you did. I didn't even think of the question this way, but just assumed it meant anything I learned that was good, useful, etc. But then as you say, and as the Chandi says, Durga is the Remover of Confustion and also the essence of the form of Confustion. So does it all come from God/Guru, even the stuff we have to work to rid outselves of? You raised a very interesting point.
