The Guru thinks of his disciple and this takes the disciple higher in his spiritual path.

Excerpts from a discourse by our Sri Sri Muralidhara Swamiji

 

A tortoise lays its eggs on land and moves over to the water. Staying in water, its thoughts rest on the eggs laid on the land. By the constant thought of the eggs by the tortoise the eggs get hatched. Similarly, the Guru thinks of his disciple and this takes the disciple higher in his spiritual path.

 

One who has fallen into the gaze of the Guru has no escape, just as the prey which has fallen into the jaws of a tiger has no escape.

 

Only grace can complete the process of liberation. So whichever path we go, we need to earn the grace of the Lord / Guru. Chanting Mahamantra easily secures the grace of the Guru.

 

Chant the Mahamantra Nama kirtan :

 

Hare Rama Hare Rama Rama Rama Hare Hare 
Hare Krishna Hare Krishna Krishna Krishna Hare Hare
