HELPLESSNESS OF THE GURU


You have a desire to tread the path towards the god but there is no intense eagerness. You are requesting that changing your desire into eagerness is my job. O dear soul! What should I tell you? If that was the case, I would not have waited for even a second. Guru can help the soul appropriately if he keeps the guru (with whose help and grace he is going to be helped in the development of his life) alive and creative in his heart with sincerity, concentration and focus. Such a soul also expresses the spirit of Guru's consciousness in everything and in totality. My near and dear people who have come to develop their spiritual life; hardly anyone of them thinks of the guru in that manner during their waking hours. It does not help to imagine or have delusion regarding the idea that someone will help us in that way. What we did or gained is ours. There is no heartfelt longing with love, devotion and awareness to fulfill the mandatory conditions to get the benefit from the guru. There is no strength to sacrifice, no desire or heartfelt joy in being one with the guru in all the aspects or no heartfelt dancing with love and devotion for him. There is no real desire in the heart to accept guru's teachings and then following it completely. So please do not talk about getting help from guru. First try to fulfill all the conditions mentioned earlier by practicing it in real life. Forget about keeping him in all the works; no body even keeps him alive and creative in the heart. So it is good to be active and keep doing whatever you want to do.
