What are the classifications of disciples?

 

Hemadpant says that they are of three kinds : (1) First or best (2)

Second or middling and (3) Third or ordinary. The best kind of

disciples are those who guess what their Gurus want and immediately

carry it out and serve them without waiting for an order from them.

The average disciples are those who carry out the orders of their

Masters to a letter, without any delay, and the third kind of

disciples are those, who go on postponing the carrying out of their

orders and making mistakes at every step.

 

The disciples should have firm faith, backed up by intelligence and

if they and patience to these, their spiritual goal will not be

distant. Control of breath -- ingoing and outgoing, or Hath-Yoga or

other difficult practices are not at all necessary. When the

disciples get the above-mentioned qualities, they become ready for

further instructions and the Masters then appear and lead them on,

in their spiritual path to perfection.
