I have been a disciple too and have devotedly served my Guru. That is why I can so convincingly speak about the virtues, the thoughts and the tendencies of a good disciple.

You have only three paths walking on which you can transform from an ordinary piece of iron into pure gold. These three paths are of devotion, faith and service. And the confluence of these three is called love.

Meditation cannot help the soul fuse with the Supreme Soul. Chanting of the Aatma Mantra too cannot help you fuse with the Divine. The path to the supreme is full of pain of love, desperation and yearning. One has to drown in the ocean of love for it.

When tears start to flow down your cheeks on to the Guru's feet then sure enough you shall have the glimpse of the Master. With a deep yearning in the heart when you try to look about with tear filled eyes then you shall be able to behold the smiling face of Sadgurudev.

An ocean ever stands with open arms, and it is for the river to rush into them. Sure there are obstacles on the way but they cannot stop the river. It carries away even villages and cities that lie in its path. People try to dam its waters but it breaks through all barriers ever eager to meet its beloved - the ocean. And te moment it merges into the ocean it becomes very peaceful. Then a loving music starts to come from its waves. For the disciple and the Sadhak the same song echoes when he has the realisation of Brahma or the Supreme.

Love means God and till you do not get drenched in the elixir of love you cannot have the glimpse of the Supreme or of Sadgurudev. Love means diving deep within and having the glimpse of the Supreme.

An ocean never travels to the source of the river to merge with it. It is the river that has to flow miles to reach the ocean in order to meet it. The river has to meet its beloved and if it does not travel it shall dry up somewhere in mid course. But the ocean still won't be able to reach it. It is the disciple who has to devote himself to reach the divine.

If a disciple wants to give place to the Guru in his heart, if he wises to realise the Supreme, if he wants to fuse in the divine form of the Guru then he has to overflow with love and devotion. If there is no love in his heart, if there is no joy in his soul then he can never give place to the Guru in his heart.

Separation is like a penance. It is a wait for someone and is a wonderful Sadhana in itself. Remembering someone, remaining lost in the thoughts of someone is like worshipping God.

If you want to have a glimpse of the Lord, if you want to dance with the Supreme, if you want to have his image ever in your eyes then you have to first have him in your heart and this can be done only by becoming tender hearted like a woman. Woman means whose heart is soft and throbbing. Activating the feelings of the heart is love.

Yearning for someone is the essence of life. It is the path of joy and only by walking on this path can you reach me. This is the only way to give place to the Guru in every cell of one's body. This is the only way of fusing in the form of the Guru and it is possible only through love.
