The more I see this argument the more I like Visistadvaita! :-)) Harsha: Everyone follows the spiritual practice that they are inclined towards. In truth, the Guru is only the Heart, One's Own Self. Therefore, no external medium is required for contact. However, without perfect recognition of the Self, there is duality and maya appears as something happening outside. The Guru then appears as part of that Maya and instructs the devotee to be aware of his true nature. The Sage of Arunachala has beautifully stated that just as an elephant wakes up upon seeing the fierce lion in his dream, the devotee upon seeing the Guru in his dream wakes up.
