Sri Chinmoy

Searchers can make

The fastest progress

If you dare to feel

With the Master's heart

sleepless asking for them,

And the soul Teacher

He loves their lives

Infinitely, infinitely more,

How are they ever be able to

love your own life.

This spiritual teacher - one who has the indivisible unity with the Supreme.

Thanks to this unity, he could easily enter the searcher to see its development and aspiration, and learn about its inner and outer life all.

When Master is meditating in front of his students, he brings Over Peace, Light and Bliss, who descend upon the disciples. Then they trained spontaneously from within, how to meditate. All true spiritual teachers teach meditation in silence. The true teacher does not have to explain words, how to meditate, or to give a special form of meditation. He can simply meditate on you, and his silent gaze will teach you how to meditate. Your soul will go into his soul and bring out the message, the knowledge of how to meditate.

There are people who misunderstand the Master, as he stands in front of them and prays. They think that he, like them, too, asks for mercy. They think, "Why bother the Teacher? We do it yourself. "

But they do not realize that between their prayer, their appeal and the fact that teachers do, there is a big difference. When the teacher is praying for light, it becomes light. When he brings mercy from above, it becomes a source of Grace of the Most High. Then those who believe in the Master descends His vsenasyschayuschaya vseispolnyayuschaya and Grace.

Students caught in a difficult situation or affected by the disease, often ask teachers to help them. And then, when his spiritual teacher the power to heal them, they begin to praise their doctors or a miraculous cure being taken. Teachers do not need their gratitude.

If they want to say that the teacher does not deserve it, he is ready to fully accept them.

But their gratitude should be turned to the Almighty, and not a doctor or some medication. On the other hand, sometimes people really feel nizoshedshuyu over Grace, but they think they pulled it to his aspiration or somehow deserved it.

In this case, the Master will not say anything, but will wait until the searcher did not understand the truth. Internally, it will give a message finder soul, and the soul after a while will carry this message to the outer consciousness se

The teacher is like an ocean. When a student jumping into the ocean of consciousness teacher, he is cleared of all its impurities and immediately feels a temporary relief. You may ask, "what to do with all this filth and all imperfections after they enter the Master?"

Teacher throws them in the Universal Consciousness.

After a few minutes, an hour, or any time it takes all of it. Sometimes teachers do not accept this - it offers them directly to God. Teacher blesses a disciple on behalf of the Almighty as their direct representatives, so the teacher is not affected.

When a teacher takes the student uncleanness, that does not mean that the student got rid of her.

The next day the student will come again with the same impure thoughts and ideas undivine, because I did not win the unenlightened qualities in yourself.

Today, he throws his deficiencies in the Master, and accumulates them again tomorrow.

So when a seeker offers the Master of imperfection, it is necessary to try to get from teachers as much as possible light.

If he can hold in his inner vessel the Peace, Light and Bliss, which offers teachers, then in the future he will be able to deal with their imperfections in life.

As long as the student is not able to keep the wealth that derives from the blessings of the Master, he can not obtain clean and make a real inner progress, not to mention the fact, to realize the highest transcendental Truth.

God-conscious person can always be happy in his inner consciousness, where there is a constant stream of Light and Delight.

If the teacher feels miserable in the outside world, this feeling comes from his students because he is identified with all the forces of darkness, from which they suffer.

At Guru has the power to repeal the law of karma students, but by doing this, he is immersed in their problems.

If I need to pull the man out of the water, I have to go into the water to help him.

And, at the same time, I need the help of a deliberate sinking.

When students do not cooperate with the teacher when they cherish their undivine qualities and do not want to get rid of them, he suffers the most.

No student will be able to do their Master happy until it is internally very happy. Even the ordinary physical father will not be happy to see that his son or daughter unhappy. And, as the teacher - a spiritual father, he can not be happy if his spiritual children are upset or depressed.

When you cry, because you have a bad husband or a bad wife, a teacher gives you your compassion and sympathy. But as long as you drop your suffering, compassion Teachers will be useless.

If you cherish your depression and anguish, the teacher's help is useless.

He is identified with your pain and the pain of your heart, and feel the same pain as you - maybe even stronger than you. But if you do not consciously try to get rid of suffering and to enter into the consciousness of enlightened teachers, the suffering and compassion Teacher in vain.

In addition, you do not even know about them. You will not feel infinite compassion teachers because their own suffering takes you much more than the love of the divine Master.

Teacher Giving your problems, you should not feel that has taken on a heavy burden. The teacher is ready to accept your ignorance. He came here with a sea of Light, and if you offer him the sea of ignorance, it does not hurt him. But, unfortunately, it seems to you that your ignorance is so valuable, and with one hand you give it, while the other hand takes it back. Now it seems that ignorance is useless, and you are happy to give it to the teacher. Do you think that is very wise - give him something useless, and instead get something valuable. But in the next moment, ignorance makes you think that what you have given, was much more valuable than what he gave you. You would think that fun is more important than the vital World.

In deep meditation, you feel that the light is more important than the darkness. But in ordinary life, in the life of desire, you feel the light - this is something unreal and vague, completely crazy inventions.

There are some students that the teacher scolds almost daily.

On the other hand, there are those that the teacher did not scold in the outer life, even every six months.

But in the inner world teacher often scolds them and threatens them as assumed full responsibility for them.

The teacher often sees that the soul of the seeker longs to follow his leadership, but the vital ranges, but the mind resists.

Then, if the Almighty wants the seeker to realize their potential and deeply immersed in the sea aspirations Almighty tells the teacher to show their divine authority.

True, if you live in the vital, it may seem that the teacher scolds you, but if you live in the heart, you see that manifested his divine care of you. And the power conferred upon it exactly you do not, he took it. It is you and your heart gave him the power to improve you and turn you into a college in the Absolute.

There are two main ways that would eventually lead the student to awareness of God with the help of teachers.

One way is to fully and consciously identify with the teacher. Either you consciously identify with them and try to be with him a single entity,

either you renounce to his will, which in the present Master - no other than the will of God.

When you touch the water, which is consciousness, its cleanliness and the calming feeling as soon as you get into. When you touch a flower, you will immediately feel its fragrance and purity. Simply touching something, you identify and understand the essence of the identification of the subject. Just seeing the way his Master in meditation, you touch his mind. Then you identify with him and become an integral part of the infinite Consciousness, which he embodied.

In addition, because of the conscious surrender to the Almighty in his Master you become all that he has and what is. A tiny drop merges into the limitless ocean and becomes the ocean itself. Such renunciation - a renunciation of your unenlightened part in front of your higher part, which is the Most High in the spiritual master. In this case the teacher is your own higher 'I'.

Once Sri Ramakrishna and his two very close disciple returned to the ashram.

They sailed on the boat. And the disciples, and Sri Ramakrishna very hungry. Sri Ramakrishna asked students to bring him juice and something to eat. When they brought the food, Ramakrishna gave them a crumb. He ate and drank all by himself. But because of the identification with the Master, thanks to the unity with him, these students really feel that ate and drank. They do not feel no more hunger or thirst.

If a student has reached such inner unity with his Master, he did not expect.

The child does not expect anything from the mother. He knows that his mother gives him everything necessary, and will be giving because care for the child - the holy mother's duty.

Similarly, constantly serve you - a sacred duty of the spiritual master. You serve him his aspiration and dedication, and he serves you their care and compassion. You are striving to play its role, and this is your ministry. He plays his role with care and compassion that elevate your consciousness, and that his ministry.

Insincere disciple think that teachers can win foreign flattery.

But teachers can be won only devotion to God in it and conscious inner unity with him.

If you are able to devote their lives - that's fine, but now the initiation must be based on internal unity. If a seeker wants to perfect realization of the supreme Truth, it is necessary to please the Divine Master in the way wants the Divine itself.

The teacher-pupil man says:

- Work hard with me and I'll give you everything.

Divine Master said to the disciple:

- I made you wait for God.

Do not linger, come with me to Him.

An excellent spiritual teacher who,

Whose eyes - very firm,

A heart - the very forgiveness.

Whoever takes you to the students

on your terms,

There can never be a true Master.

Not a spiritual teacher,
