The Nektar of a Guru


Here a small part of Swami Vishwananda's Speach yesterday night (July, 24th 2010)
".....Why do people go to a master and receive what the master is giving? You see, it is because the master carries the amrit, the nectar, even when you don't perceive it with the mind, but you do receive it, through satsang, through our talk you are receiving something and what you are receiving is contributing to your advancement. What you are receiving, even you receive it without knowing, is the amrit. Its this nectar that bees fly from far away and come and collect in the lotus flower or in certain flowers. Not all the flowers have the same capacity of honey inside of them, not all the flowers have the same capacity of sweetness inside and who knows that?
Only the bees know that, not the frog, the frog or the stupidity that is always thinking they know everything. They will jump up and down on the flower but they will not know what is the sweetness inside. To know that one has to dig deep inside oneself, dig deep and even deeper where one gets this amrit and is this through the help of the teacher, the Guru, that you receive this amrit so that at the end of life you can say “Yes, I have achieved the purpose of life”.
