The Satguru is greater than all else, even God


The Satguru is Truth-Awareness-Bliss,

and is like the sun:

you no longer need a torch to see.

Because you do not understand the language of the Self,

the Satguru manifests as the outer Guru.

If you think that you have a body

you need a Teacher with one.

Stay with the Holy One who gives you Peace.

He is like a shade tree in the desert of samsara.

This Guru is the butcher of the sheep ego.

His function is to tell you, “I am Within You,”

and to give you the conviction

that you are Existence-Consciousness-Bliss.

Every True Teacher tells you:

“Look Within, there is no difference

between yourself, Self, and Guru.”

The Guru shows the Treasure

which is already always Here.
