But inside lies the difference: the love that the Guru can give to his disciple—love, love, love. Yes, this cannot be done by anyone else." A speaker reflects on the inner purification of sādhana, comparing it to cleaning a pond where dirt surfaces to be cleared. They discuss using discernment (viveka) to manage negative qualities and reframe the ego (ahaṃkāra) positively as necessary willpower. The talk then turns to the nature of the Guru's divine love, illustrated with a parable of a priceless diamond inside a common box and the metaphor of a Guru as a self-sacrificing candle.
