Me, My Guru - On guru
Buddha didn’t happen in a day.
Your Rama, Krishna weren’t born that way.
Your master didn’t acquire his nature with an attunement or his degree.
Each of these people looked within again and again. They found their
weaknesses and worked on it – day in and day out. They were not ashamed of
failing. They did not shy of falling. But they didn’t let failing or falling
stop them from getting up. Every time they were knocked down on their weakness
won, they stood up to work on it. At every juncture they had choices to make –
pleasant over right to make. But they didn’t. They always choose ‘right’ over ‘pleasant’.
Not to please others or to gain a place in heaven or material benefit but ‘right’
for the sake of ‘right’. They were who they were for all the choices they made
for all the journey they did, for all the loses that they bore, for all the
pain that they endured, for all the rebuke they faced, for all the love that
they shared in exchange for the hatred that they received.When you do what your Guru does, you are fanning your ego, pretentious and manipulative nature into justifying your actions. You are choosing an alibi for your failures. You are trusting pretention over reality.
But when you do what your Guru asks you to do, you are working on your limitations, working towards your potential and you are overcoming fear and ignorance and walking towards love and trust!
Now there is the difference for you to see on both the paths.
We were so stuck with the words that we didn’t miss her much.
