Question from SWAMIJI for the Group

[Guest guest]

Have any of you learned anything without the grace of the Guru?

[Guest guest]

Is it through the grace of Guru that I learned that I am of no value unless I

please people, that I am merely a person, merely a husband, merely a son, or

merely an engineer?

 

I speak of the things I learned that were simply not true.

 

Is it guru who spreads falsehoods?

 

I feel that guru only brings truth. 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.

 

So yes, I have learned things not from Guru, and I spent the better part of my

life recognizing the folly of those beliefs.

 

But, from the ultimate perspective, it is she who is all who directed all of

those experiences. And there is no difference between he who dispells shadow and

she who casts shadow.

 

The answer to this question varies depending on who I am.
