Wisdom of Swami Vishwananda: The Satguru...

"We search for our Satguru always, because it’s only the Satguru that will lead us out of this illusion. Only the Satguru can give us a blessing and guide us and make us Realise our True Self. But to find the Satguru is very often difficult. We go through many ups and downs. We keep searching, thinking we will find the Satguru. We pray to God “God, send my Satguru.” But yet, very often, when the Satguru is in front of somebody, they don’t know it, because in the people’s minds, how they fashion a Guru is completely different to how the Satguru is in reality."

JGD,
"But if You are pure in Your heart, if you are sincere in your heart He will give you everything without asking He will give you. Even if you donnot know any mantra, even if you donot know any prayers, nothing. He donnot care about it, but what He cares is your love inside of You."

"And give up all, so for once, especially during this night, try to forget about yourself, you as the body, forget yourself as the mind, forget, forget all your chores, forget all your worries, forget all the thing which is ourside and sincerely say to Lord Shiva: "Please, install yourself in my heart, reveal yourself and if I am not pure enough, cleanse me.(...) But at the end you can have vision of Him so that you don not need to take birth again. Just one vision of Him is enough to free you completely. Jai Gurudev!"
