2-Shripal: re.... Jupiter Article Series - Introduction to Jupiter - Part 1 > Mark Kincaid 6/9

[Guest guest]

Jai Jinendra Mark,Well said Mark,Jupiter is truly a Guru of Guru.Now Who

is a true Guru and How one is suppose to find it

externally in outside world

Howdy, Shripal:

It was so fun reflecting on Jupiter today! bliss!

you also asked:

so does our existense

or in other words all is real and Moksha is a illusion

to achieve.

So who is true GURU?

I can't quite understand your question, but Guru is that which teaches.

And the Self of the Universe is all there is.

In one of it's facets, the Self of the Universe, acts as a Mother, while another facet, acts

as a Father.

A third aspect functions as a governing Intelligence which teaches, which leads and instructs

and that we call Guru.

The truth is all, is the Self, One, connected, Unified.

Guru is just a flavor of Consciousness, that exists, is part of the Self of Brahman, and has all

of it's unique qualities as well as functions.

I like enlivening the quality of Guru, because Guru saves us.

Guru, as it does representing and living in the Higher Consciousness, represents

our future, and therefore has more intimate wisdom as to our next steps of

Evolution.

So, we open ourselves to 'that' just so that we rapidly and effortlessly evolve,

with the least kind of struggles.

Guru, is however, just that Higher Self.

Gurus, in the physical form, can be there, or they may not.

Guru is always there, in 'life', it represents, progress, and expansion, too.

Jai Guru!

Mark K.

ps... oh yes, you also asked how are we supposed to find it, in the outer world?

We have to almost be blind to not find it!, hehe. Guru exists in ennumerable places.

No matter what field we're in, there exist those who are the leaders in that field.

Some of them, even want to help those who are coming up next.

They're the Gurus, of every field.

As far as how do we find Gurus, of the Self, of Consciousness, we only have to desire it.

The Guru will find it's way to us!

Read the Bhagavad-Gita, again, and you'll hear the divine words of the Immortal, first Guru,

Krishna.

His relationship with Arjuna is supreme!

There are a number of Gurus, around, you can read about them.

Many of them have books out.

You can read about them, and then, approach the one, or two, that you have the

greatest affinity with.

Or you can bow down to the Guru that exists within you, right now.

We shouldn't get too attached to the forms of the Guru, that are out there.

They, all, represent the true Guru which is the nature of our inner Selves.

ciao.

[spirituality_Astrology] Jupiter Article Series - Introduction to

Jupiter - Part 1 > Mark Kincaid 6/9

Jai Jinendra Mark,

Well said Mark,Jupiter is truly a Guru of Guru.Now Who

is a true Guru and How one is suppose to find it

externally in outside world, there can be different

category Dharam Guru,Karam Guru and Nuture

Guru(Mother) etc.True guru must be within yourself;

which reflects your soul in front of GOD and Guru

working as a mediator to feel the same.In my

defination GOD is for liberation or one who can make

you like HIM.

GOD is a Guru and Guru can be a GOD too.One's for all

everyone's soul is a Guru of himself to achieve a

Moksha and there no one will come your

friends,sister's,lover's,parents etc etc.As

relationship itself is illusion, so does our existense

or in other words all is real and Moksha is a illusion

to achieve.

So who is true GURU?
