The master and his disciple are one
The light of the Guru is the supreme reality. The divine lineage embodies this light. A disciple's journey involves initial confusion and resistance to the Guru's guidance. Through persistent devotion and surrender, grace is received, often in moments of deep meditation or on sacred occasions. The ultimate truth revealed is the non-dual oneness of Guru and disciple. This unity is not of form but of essence, like the ocean and its drops. Many teachers give instruction, but only the Satguru bestows the transformative blessing that awakens this knowledge within. This realization requires consistent practice and turning inward.
"Guru and disciple are one."
"I will make you one."
