The Guru is not the PERSON that you see -Sadhguru about need of Guru

[Music] a once we start working on you you may not want to say that so don't be in a rush don't be in a rush on day one once we start working with you you may hate the people around you for some time before it turns into love it'll take some more time you know initially if you do simply anything it hurts at that time you hate the people who made you do that it takes some time for it's to reap the benefits when benefits come you may again fall in love with us we'll wait till then and you don't sit here and choose your guru you just be here it will happen if you find something really worthwhile it will happen if you don't no problem i am not longing to be anybody's guru if you are willing i'll help you you want to do it yourself i'm fine with this that's my problem only thing is when you walk an unknown terrain when you walk an unknown terrain to find something which is the neighborhood you may go around the world and still miss it so guru is like the gps you drive with the gps where you come from which country mexico mexico okay in mexico you use gps yes sometimes where there are roads so if you use a gps some strange voice tells you turn right you turn right turn left you turn left take a u-turn you take a u-turn you do this right so today you're already prepared for a guru with the gps it actually means guru positioning system you know so you already been prepared you don't go guru shopping don't do that if something touches you you will have no choice nothing touches you why should you waste your time fair enough the guru is not the person that you see as a as a person i'm quite horrible people know all the time i'm poking at them at something it's not the person fortunately it's a fortune that it's happening through a certain person that's all if it was happening through that bird maybe it is teaching you yoga but you won't get it isn't it would you get it from that bird maybe it is espousing the highest wisdom but you won't get it because it is happening through another creature somewhat like you of your kind it's a fortune if it happened through a rock you wouldn't get it it happened through a bird you wouldn't get it if it happened through a snake you wouldn't get it it has happened like this in the past even now but people will completely miss it suppose a cobra came here a guru teaching you won't get it isn't it so it's happening through another form of life which is similar to you this is the best opportunity you have so don't get lost in the person something happens through the person don't resist that a guru does not mean it's a commodity that you take home if you touch the dimension which dispels your darkness it anyway goes with you you don't have to take it you don't have to take me in your handbag if you allow it if you allow yourself be touched it will enemy go with you nobody can get rid of it that will be your biggest problem you can't get rid of me even if you go to mexico once you have entered the space which you call as human from here your evolution is no more natural it has to be conscious if you don't become conscious there will not be any progress from here onwards monkeys can progress man cannot progress he can only progress consciously somewhere nature trusted your intelligence nature believed that with the intelligence that you have anyway you will choose the higher not the lower but you've been trying to beat nature's trust but it's not possible it doesn't matter how many ways you indulge yourself somewhere something longs for something bigger isn't it yes you fill yourself with wealth and filth and everything but still the longing is not gone so when the longing becomes unbearable you seek [Music] when you seek can't you seek that which is within yourself by yourself you can but it's an uncharted path [Music] because it's an uncharted path if you go by yourself you know what happened to columbus you wanted to come to india and landed up here it was an uncharted path isn't it simply by accident he landed in this continent [Music] we are only hearing about those who landed somewhere do you know how many never landed anywhere yes thousands of sailors who set forth never landed anywhere if you go on an uncharted path without any guidance this is what will happen now that columbus landed here just see how it easy it is from europe to america why now it's a chartered path because of that man isn't it similarly you go to your guru because he landed now using his experience is a good thing can't i do it by myself you can but we don't know how many lifetimes you will take by yourself not that is impossible you may just do it in a moment also you know you may just land up there we don't know but 99 of the people will just get lost and washed away that's why a guru has come [Music] a guru is just a device guru is not a person this must be understood only when you begin to experience me as something more than a person only then i am your guru till then i am not [Music] because one thing is of a historical significance because this is the day adi yogi turned himself into a guru after the semi-solid stars this first full moon has a certain impact it is generally considered as a day of grace and that is the day the first guru chose to teach so it's significant reminder for us for every human being on the planet because everybody lives in their own limitations of body mind social structures and structures all kinds of things it is for every human being it's important to know that there is a way to be beyond these things that's the reminder
