“then what is the purpose of having such great Gurus in our midst if we always are
going to miss learning from then?” Rahul asked dejected…
“No,no. Always remember for millions who have misunderstood
Budha we have a Angulimaan who became enlightened Master. For thousands who sit to judge Jesus we have
St.Francis and such great saints. Let all you question Sri Paramahamsa do so,
but there was one Vivekanancda who turned the course of History based on his
Guru’s teachings.”
“Now, why they are able to learn and become such great men
and why not others?’ is your next question, right ?’ she asked with a
mischievous smile and we nodded sheepishly..
she continued “because, they didn’t have a major block in
them called ‘ego’ when they sat beside their Guru. A master can fill you only as much as you are empty and as per
the size of your vessel. Remember that
always. Where ‘YOU’ cease to exit,
their his Grace descends on you and you ‘learn’ from Him.”
We knew what ego is and why we can’t put it aside when we
are with Her. We didn’t ask any questions further and she left us with our
mixed emotions and multiple thoughts…
We stood where we had started. Could we ever trade our ego with knowledge? I doubted that
highly. But hoped against hope that day
comes sooner that later!
