A satsang discourse on spiritual practice and the guru-disciple relationship. "We are performing this Anuṣṭhāna sādhana, and it is bringing many things to the surface. Many memories are arising from the past, along with many, many situations. And this must happen." "The Guru also has a human body, like other people... 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."

They discuss using discernment (viveka) to manage negative qualities and reframe the ego (ahaṃkāra) positively as necessary willpower.
