Satsang by Swami Jasrajpuri, on the 11th of September

A spiritual discourse on the living succession within a guru lineage. "The Master never dies. The body goes, for they become one with Brahman. As long as the master is living in the body, he is with us. When he passes away or leaves this body, then he is not with us, but he is within us." "Anger, greed, jealousy, hate, etc.—these negative qualities create a barrier... So anger—not only towards the Master, but towards anyone. Anger is there where there is fear." A speaker explains the eternal nature of the master's consciousness, which transcends the physical body and is passed to a prepared successor, making them the same person in a "different cloth."
