Guest guest Posted December 16, 2001 Report Share Posted December 16, 2001 Verse 104 Nityam Brahma niraakaaram yena praaptam sa vy Guruh / Sa shishyam praapayet prapyam deepodeepaantaran yatha // Sadguru is one who has obtained omniscience and formlessness of the Absolute. Just as one light lights another, he gives to His disciple what he deserves. Here there are many kinds of Siddhis (wonderful attainments). What should we want among them? What will He give us? These thoughts are quite unnecessary. Indeed we don't know what we want. But He knows what He should give and gives when it should be given. So it is better to pray to Him, 'Oh Lord! Give me what I actually need after you think over it." But we can also pray to Him to give us strength to withstand the difficulties. There is nothing else to desire. We should not pray for too many wants. In fact, Guru uses all His powers for His good disciple. You should be such a good disciple. It means you have the wick and you should be ready soaking it in the oil of SAADHANA or practice. Don't be worried that you haven't done anything before. Begin now, soak the wick in practice. One day when you are ready, He will suddenly light your wick, for He is the eternal light. Check out Shopping and Auctions for all of your unique holiday gifts! Buy at or bid at http://auctions.
