Guru Bhakthi

Sri Sri Muralidhara Swamigal Discourse:


" If you get a proper Guru (‘Uttama Guru’), then Guru Bhakti is the easiest way

 Here are a few of numerous reasons why such a Guru Bhakti is supreme:

1.   You can see your Guru as you see anyone else.

2.   You can talk to your Guru as you talk to anyone else

3.   The Guru is easily approachable

4.   The Guru can get his ideas clearly across to you

5.   The Guru will battle with you to make you good

6.   God Himself says that its verily God who comes in the form of the Guru to liberate masses.

7.   The Guru never expects anything else from you but for your love

8.   You can visit his place and enjoy bliss and peace

9.   The Guru can visit your place too.

10. The Guru will never destroy or curse anybody (even God could kill a Kamsa or a Ravana, but the Guru’s compassion is boundless)

11.  Instead of cursing bad people, the Guru will transform them to godliness
 
12. The Guru will remove your obstacles in the divine path -- both internal and external.

13. The Guru is the only person in the world who can do something good to you without any reason

14. The very sight of your Guru will help you develop your faith in God.

Scriptures say that your Soul, God and the Guru are one and the same
