Me, my Guru – on hole in a boat

All these and related questions seemed normal to an outsider. But to one receiving this questions – it was frustrations rolled in words!

No, our Guru didn’t complain. She didn’t tell anything. But, I could see it myself. Later, few other students like Rahul, Aziz also validated my observations.

Now, if it was us in her place, these people would’ve had it. But she being her just continued with explanations. I didn’t like this one bit. She didn’t lose her calm one bit!

“In a certain village Ummeedpur lived a wealthy landlord. He had a boat that needed painting badly. He called for a painter. He wanted it to be painted blue. He showed the boat to the painter, agreed on the charges.

The next day, the painter Satyadev came with blue paint, brush and other tools required for painting that boat. He sat to paint. As he was painting he found a ‘small hole’ in the boat. He silently repaired it too! He finished the painting, took his charges and left. The landlord too had an errand in town and so he too left to attend to his business.

Next day, the wealthy landlord came to painter and gave him money much more than his painting job. The painter simply said “but sir, you’ve already paid for my painting job as agreed. This is way too much of payment. Why do you give me this?”

"No, our Guru didn’t complain. She didn’t tell anything. But, I could see it myself. " - Look at the entire series of Me, My Guru, you'll never find Guru saying anything about herself. It is always some other character either praising her or finding fault with her. She is always seen from others' perspective! Note this always!

This one observation will tell you how we conduct ourselves and how we create "OUR WORLD" through our perception, understanding and psychic impressions. Guru does what she does! But it is ever judged by other characters depending upon their level of understanding, character, state of mind and level of consciousness that they are operating through....

The same applies to everyone in our life. We judge and give marks to people on how we relate with them. And that depends solely on our conditioning of mind, expectations from them, belief systems and our needs and wants! And yet, we assume the 'other to be bad'!!??

Think about it!
