The fortunate ones who found the path of Sanathana Dharma
A spiritual discourse on the path of Sanātana Dharma and the role of the guru.
"Swāmī Śivānandajī of Ṛṣikeś writes: 'The master is that candle which is already lit. The disciple is that candle which is still not lit.'"
"Gurujī said... 'Those who understand the Guru, they become themselves Gurudeva.'"
A speaker describes Sanātana Dharma as a highway, then elaborates on the guru-disciple relationship using the metaphor of a lit candle igniting an unlit one. He shares a teaching from Swami Sivananda and recalls the final words of his own Guruji, emphasizing that a true guru transforms a disciple into a guru, unlike a paras stone which only turns iron to gold.
