QUESTION & ANSWER WITH GURUDEV

POSTED ON: SATURDAY, JANUARY 25, 2020

Q: Gurudev, if all of us are Gods anyways, then why do we need a Guru?

Gurudev: Ok tell me do you want this answer? Why do you want this answer? Will you accept the answer I tell you? That means you have already accepted me as your Guru! Ask your self why. Because there are certain question, which comes to your mind, and you don't have an answer for, you come to someone who you think knows. That's your Guru. The one who answer your questions is your Guru. There could be two reason why you may not need a Guru.

(A) You are already enlightened and you have all the answers to the questions.

(B) When you are too inert like a stone, then no question comes to your mind. But when there is intelligence, the questions come. It comes from discrimination (viveka). You need a mirror to see your own face right? You cannot see it on the pillar or on the wall. You only can see it on the mirror. The Guru is that mirror who shows you your true self to you.
