How the Guru works on You

Guru goes on pushing you

I can only give this one scale to know if you are with the right Guru - maybe this can guide you. After you come in contact with that person through initial introduction or initial exposure, do the techniques of that person add intelligence, awareness and bliss to you. In these three qualities, even if one quality increases if you go behind that person, surely you will be helped. Or in this three, if you are not growing in this three, forget about him. Even if he brings fortune or wealth in your life it will only be danger for you.

Right Guru will go on pushing you continuously to move forward, will never give you the feeling you are done. Real peace is the explosion of the mind which is asking for peace, into pieces.

Understand. What you think as real peace is the tamasic, tiredness, chronic fatigue. That is why when life comes in front of you, you just jump into some cave; wanted to have a cozy cave. No, even your cave is inside my Himalayas! Even if you catch a cave, you do not understand I am the walls of the cave. A real Master will go on pushing you.

Guru blows away your mind

A real Master will not encourage any fatigue or tiredness in you. He will never run a resort. He will run only a commune. Maybe after his death, his disciples will change the name into resort. He himself will never run a resort. Person who ask for the peace of the resort out of fatigue, tiredness, wanting to rest, will never be allowed in the presence of a living Master.

The mind which asks once in a while 'I think I need rest, I think I need a break' yes you need; not from the situation, you need break in the root. You need to be broken. The mind which asks for the break need to be broken. That is the break it needs.

Samadhi happens to a person whose non-mechanical parts of the brainare alive, awakened. The mind which asks you for vacation, for rest, for peace, for tiredness, has to be blown away; it should explode to pieces, only then peace happens.

A real Master is a person goes on pushing you. The ability to receive as nectar even what you feel as poison, and stand with it, is what I call tapas.
