We have to solve the problems
The guru removes darkness with light, and the soul journeys through attachments to liberation.
The first gurus are mother and father, imparting the knowledge of being human. Then friends teach lessons aligned or not. The soul, pure in the womb, slowly encounters worldly toys. A child clings to toys, crying if they are taken. In teenage years, the search for a partner begins, but modern attachments often lead to broken toys and damaged souls. Man and woman are two wings; separation cuts the wings, leaving the soul wounded. Later, the last toy becomes hope, God, spirituality. With a true master, one can rise on the divine path, but falling cuts the wing again. When the wing is missing, death approaches like a cat. The master shapes the disciple like iron in fire, hammering to make a beautiful instrument, never destroying. The master who creates a statue then bows, seeing the divine. External troubles swallowed into the body attack weak organs, causing suffering. The soul then neither dares to leave nor wants to stay. A technique of chanting Om from the navel to the crown, with hollow palms over the ears, vibrates every brain cell, relieving depression and awakening memory.
"That soul is so pure, it has no worldly spots on it. Slowly, slowly, this māyā will begin."
"The master puts it again in the fire and gives the air. Again, it becomes hot. Take the hammer and work."
