There is no you in NewVillager, but there is a we. Your job thenceforth will be that of the bodhisattva, the guru, the gap-toothed docent with a serious thing for Whistler's Mother. There will be others, newervillagers than yourself, who never stood a chance either. Only through them do you stand any hope of tracing your footsteps back to where you began.
I am the rich man's guru.
I have always wanted to branch off and become a fashion guru. I want to share my artistic views with the world.
The guru, if he is gifted, reads the story as any bilingual person might. He does not translate-he understands.
A man said to me, "You talk to your dead guru?" And I said, "Yeah. " He said, "That's in your imagination. " And I said, "Yeah!" Because my guru is in my imagination anywhere. Anywhere.
So long as you have faith in your Guru, nothing will be able to obstruct your way.
A guru is not a crutch, he is a bridge.
The thing is that the ego cannot cure itself of its own malady of egoism; it's already infected by the disease itself. And that is why it is necessary to go to a guru who knows God and by absorbing his consciousness into yourself, you discover that you aren't this ego. You cross that abyss and you find that you are infinite.
Gurus Enable you to see new things. The trouble with Gurus is that you can rarely see beyond them.
A guru is needed not to worship, but to direct you.
I met Leo Fender, who is the guru of all amplifiers, and he gave me a Stratocaster. He became a second father to me.
The guru is not someone who is confined to the body. When there is selfless love for the guru, we will be able to see him not only in his body but in every living and nonliving thing in this world. Learn to see everything as the guru's body and to serve them accordingly.
The Guru and Disciple relationship is where the person has a 100% belief in the Guru and that way you put your trust in the Guru, that he's going to get you out of this mess. If you are a Christian, then Christ is your Guru, and they're all disciples of Christ.
The mentor-mentee relationship is ideally like that of the guru and disciple: motivated by the desire of the guru to impart knowledge to the disciple.
Let no man in the world live in delusion. Without a Guru none can cross over to the other shore.
My real guru are my experiences in life - the realisation that you are alone in this world came very early to me.
Ultimately when I am with you all, what I see is my Guru. And what is he? He is love.
Guru is heavy, because he carries Lord Krishna in his heart.
Whatever our destiny is, whatever our Karma is, if we simply accept the mercy of Guru, "Guru Kripa", it can completely liberate us from all of our previous Karmic bondage.
You yourself are the Teacher, and the Pupil, you're the Master, you're the Guru, you are the Leader, you are Everything! And, to understand, is to transform what Is.
