Guru



                 “Let  no  man  in  the  world  live  in  delusion.
                 Without  a  Guru  none  can  cross  over  to  the
                 other shore”
                                                             Guru Nanak

               The  word  'Guru'  is  derived  from  the  Sanskrit
          language and has a very deep spiritual meaning. Its two

          syllables Gu and Ru stand for the following:
               Gu  means  spiritual  ignorance  and  darkness  that
          most of us are in.

               Ru means  light  or  radiance  of  spiritual  knowledge
          that dispels the darkness of spiritual ignorance.

               In  short,  the  Guru  is  the  One  who  dispels  the
          darkness of spiritual ignorance and gives them spiritual
          knowledge.
               “7  janam  jadon  guru  nu  paan  di  ichcha  aur
          kosish karde ho tad jaake tuhanu pooran guru milda

          hai.” Meaning - “You have to desire and seek a guru for
          a period of 7 lifetimes before you can find a true guru.”
          ~ Guruji ~
               “Har  maa  apne  bacche  di  guru  hundi  hai  jadon
          tak baccha 10 saal da nai ho jaanda. Usde baad asi

          mahapurush  take  over  kar  lende  haan.” - “Every
          mother is the guru of her child till the child reaches the
          age of 10 yrs. After that we mahapurush take over.”
