What is the difference between a mother and a Guru?
Sri Sri Muralidhara Swamiji
Although mother's love is supreme, it is only human. Guru's love is divine.
Please check these: Excerpts from a discourse by our Sri Sri Muralidhara Swamiji
The Magic of the Guru's Love
You may be the worst sinner, highly undisciplined; you may have committed all kinds of atrocities; yet, if a mahatma declares, "Oh, he is my child", that will suffice for you
Guru's boundless grace is immeasurable, limitless and infinite.
If we surrender ourselves absolutely without any reservation to the Guru, He will save us from all sorrow and show us the way to salvation
When a disciple leads his life with the clear understanding that it is the Guru who is running his life - adverse or otherwise, completely emptying the mind of personal likes and dislikes, seeing everything as Guru's leela, attains realization
The best offering that a disciple can give to the Guru is realizing that nothing else can equal his grace.
When can one earn Guru krupa? When God decides to bless a person, he receives Guru's grace. One has to be blessed with Bhakti; and that is blessed only by God/Guru.
To collect people living around one's home and help them chant the Lord's Name is verily service to the Guru. Or to follow the special instruction given to him/her by the Guru is verily 'service' to the Guru.
