photographs. Always put flowers instead.”
               A guru likes a disciple who is humble and devoid of

          any ego. Ego is one thing that a guru will never tolerate
          in a disciple and will constantly keep testing him till he
          lets  go  of  this  evil.  “Kis  gal  da  ahankaar?  Neeve  ho
          jaao. Neeve rukhan nu hi phal lagde han. Neevi than

          te  jiven  paani  aap  chal  ke  aanda  hai  us  tarhan  hi
          neeve  loga  kol  blessings  aap  chal  ke  aandi  hai.
          Moorakhon ke hum daas, bas eh gal yaad rakho.” -
          “Why  this  ego?  Be  humble  and  remember  that  trees
          that  bear  maximum  fruit  on  them  are  always  leaning
          low. Just as water flows on its own to low lying areas,
          similarly, Blessings come on their own to those who are
          humble. Don’t argue with the ignorant.”
               Never be arrogant as it never pays in the long run.
          “Bakri  saari  umar  main  main  kardi  hai,  par  jad
          mardi hai usdi cham da tumba banda hai jisdi aawaz
          tu tu hundi hai, fir oh pachtandi hai te rab nu kendi

          hai, rab, bas tu hi tu hai.” - “A goat, all its life does
          main main (me - me) but when it dies, its skin is used
          to make a musical instrument that takes out the sound
          of  tu - tu  (you - you)  after  its  death  it  realizes  its
          mistake and then tells God, that God, there is only you
          and no one but You!”

               A  guru,  to  test  you,  may  give  you  everything  you
          want and then quietly watches if you are able to handle
          it or will you get arrogant. If even a bit of arrogance or
          ego  creeps  into  you,  you  are  at  a  risk  of  losing
          everything.  “Main  8  podiyaan  fata  fat  chada  denda
