Guru commands obedience from all. The whole universe including five great elements has to obey Guru's command. Guru is an instrument to cross over the ocean of sansaar. ONE WHO SEES GURU ALSO SEES GOD. When Guru is available, there is no need to see and search for God. Through Gurubhakti, one can tide over all types of adversaries. No one can describe the greatness or glory of Guru. The Guru is to be glorified from the point of view of a disciple. The Guru is at home at all levels. He is possessed with inexhaustible knowledge, patience, energy and compassion. Nothing is impossible for Guru. But very few can come to know of Guru's real mind and potentialities. Guru's glory and behavior cannot be understood and explained. We are just tools in the hands of Guru. A spiritual leader guides the destiny of men. So leave everything to the mercy of Guru. We are safe in His hands.

MAAYAAAND GURU

Maaya is a   complex concept. Maaya is man's limited perception. It makes us to assume this world as ultimate reality, while in reality, the self alone is real.

Guru is devoid of Maaya. Maaya does not bind Guru. Maaya is the play of creation. The physical world operates under the principal law of Maaya. Maaya makes us to forget the ultimate reality and to be after unreal. It is the main hurdle on spiritual path. It makes us to roam aimlessly and is responsible for missing the track. All in this world are entrapped by Maaya except Guru. It makes us roam wildly. Maaya acts according to the dictates of Guru. The whole physical world is encircled by Maaya in different forms. It envelopes reality and projects illusion, unreality.

We are hypnotized by Maaya. Even great sages and aspirants have become the victims of Maaya. Then why to speak about others? Maaya separates us from God. Maaya is the creation

of God. Maaya is ignorance. Maaya imprisons, engulfs us. All of us are caught in the web of Maaya. In simple words, Maaya means attachment
