Who will liberate us?
A spiritual discourse on the unity of all paths and the grace of the guru, delivered on Christmas.
"Names are different, places are different, languages are different, yet they are all. If you do not understand this and do not want equality, then know we have the same blood, same nerves, same bones; everything is the same."
"The guru is that who gives us knowledge... Guru Kṛupāhi Kevalaṁ Śiṣyaki Ānanda Maṅgalaṁ. When the Gurudeva is there, the disciple is happy, full of joy."
A spiritual teacher addresses a gathering, honoring Christmas and the universal teachings of all saints and religions. He emphasizes the non-dual unity behind all names and forms, discusses the essential roles of the divine mother (Śakti) and father (Śiva), and explains the irreplaceable role of the Satguru in liberating the individual from worldly attachment, illustrated through a metaphor of a spider trapped in its own web.
