Guest guest Posted March 31, 2008 Report Share Posted March 31, 2008 From : http://serez.gaia.com/blog/2006/8/im_sorry_and_i_love_you This is about Dr. Ihaleakala Hew Len " HO'OPONOPONO By Joe Vitale " Two years ago, I heard about a therapist in Hawaii who cured a complete ward of criminally insane patients--without ever seeing any of them. The psychologist would study an inmate's chart and then look within himself to see how he created that person's illness. As he improved himself, the patient improved.

Guest guest Posted March 31, 2008 Report Share Posted March 31, 2008 how can you trust the mind when the mind is the problem in the first place? maybe some have a gift of intuition, a connection to the inner guru.. but for most like me, all i hear is the voice of the ego since thats all I know. thats who i'm used to listening to. chrism, you say " we are individuals first " but isn't that kind of thinking the problem in the first place? the belief that we are individuals rather than primordial consciousness that is free of separation Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest guest Posted March 31, 2008 Report Share Posted March 31, 2008 Question: If it is true that the Guru is one's own Self, what is the principle underlying the doctrine which says that, however learned a disciple may be or whatever occult powers he may possess, he cannot attain Self-realisation without the grace of the Guru? Sri Ramana Maharshi: Although in absolute truth the state of the Guru is that of oneself (the Self), it is very hard for the self which has become the individual (jiva or embodied soul) through ignorance, to realise its true state or nature without the grace of the Guru. Question: How then some great persons attain knowledge without a Guru? Sri Ramana Maharshi: To a few mature persons the Lord shines as the formless light of knowledge and imparts awareness of the truth. Question: What is the significance of Guru's grace in the attainment of liberation? Sri Ramana Maharshi: Liberation is not anywhere outside you. It is only within. If a man is anxious for deliverance, the internal Guru pulls him in and the external Guru pushes him into the Self. This is the grace of the Guru. Questioner: J.Krishnamurti says, " No Guru is necessary. " Sri Ramana Maharshi: How did he know it? One can say so after realising but not before. Question: Is it absolutely necessary to have a Guru if one is seeking Self-realisation? Sri Ramana Maharshi: So long as you seek Self-realisation the Guru is necessary. Guru is the Self. Take Guru to be the real Self and your self as the individual self. The disappearance of this sense of duality is the removal of ignorance. So long as duality persists in you the Guru is necessary. Because you identify yourself with the body, you think that the Guru is also a body. You are not the body, nor is the Guru. You are the Self and so is the Guru. This knowledge is gained by what you call Self-realisation. more here http://www.kundalinisupport.com/guru.htm my understanding of it is that the guru system is a tool. - gives the mind something to focus on - surrender to guru allows openness to shakti that is always there - guru pummels the ego and points one toward the inner guru - helps one steer clear of distractions and phenomena to focus on attaining the highest level of consciousness its a system, and it works. but unfortunately in this day and age the guru has turned into a business. so finding a legit guru who isn't out to make money is tough. but can be done, look at swami G for example. the problem I feel with this " trust yourself " type mentality is that trusting your ego mind can easily occur, and 99.9% of the time does.

Guest guest Posted March 31, 2008 Report Share Posted March 31, 2008 The Rishi Sanskriti is a ten thousand year old spiritual tradition in India and the Guru is part of that System. For many westerners this may be a bit distasteful. In India Guru is God - " Guru Devo Bavath " . The desciple is supposed to surrender his 'Than, Man and Dhan " - Body, Mind and Wealth - to the Guru. The westerner deales with everybody on an equal footing. There are four categories of Gurus and the highest one is the " Samarth Guru " - literal translation is Expert Guru. This Guru is capable of giving 'Enlightenment' by a word, or a touch or a look. There is enogh proof validating this. Shri Ramana Maharishi and Shri Nisargadatta Maharaj are recent examples. In India it is considered a dangerous pursuit to take up the Kundalini Sadhana without a proper Guru, who himself is a realised soul.
