A Call from the Beyond

WHAT DOES A GURU DO ? The Mind is One. The doubting mind is the seeker. The mind free from doubt is the Guru 'Seeker' and 'Guru' Both are only words Words to express the state of Being An expression of the silence of OM, also spelt AUM O Nari, why indeed should you be afraid of the 'words' ! What does a Guru do ? Just one little thing . . . He tells you . . . " Tum hee ho .... Tat Twam Asi " . . you are the Light . . you yourself are the Light that you seek . . . you are enlightened . . . . already enlightened . . . just remember yourself. You are the Light . . . you are the Guru . . Be yourself . . . Just Be . . . stop being 'this' ,or 'that', just Be ! 'This ' and 'that' are only appearances in the light . . . The nature of the appearances is an ever-changing phenomenon . . . Watch the constantly changing appearance. Watch this ' this' or 'that' and, by all means, enjoy the show. Just Be.... Aapo deepo bhava......" And when you ask the Questions - - - - - .... because the Guru's words.... even though , they send a current through you ..... you feel the joy and truth of the words.... yet the reality of the words, the 'essence' of the words escapes you..... ..... you want to 'catch' this essence..... this essence to stay in your grasp.... in your understanding... in your Being... to abide in you ... and you abide in it..... ..... and yet find yourself wanting .... so you ask the Guru , " How ? " ...... ...you ask the Guru questions ..... many questions...... When you ask the Guru questions....... The Guru gives you the answers, for he knows .... he has 'known' that essence....... the essence abides in him ... and he himself is the 'essence ' of the words, .... the ' Being '...... the ' Being ' is him.... Verily he knows ...... and he answers..... You ask and he answers..... and his answers are the truth .... are the essence.... they are not the words ... not just the words... they are Existential .... something more than words alone... they are his Being... and you feel it... once in a while you can feel his Being.... once in a while his words reach you.... reach your heart... your Being.... you can ' feel' the truth of the words... you feel ' light ' .... you feel peaceful .....as you listen to his words.... the words.... the answers ..... and your thirst is ignited, excited.... you become thirsty.... You keep questioning... and he keeps smiling ....... and answering And one day.... some day.... his look , his smile, his words answer the ultimate Question ....the ultimate Question, ' who am I ? '.... And as his words, his answer, his Being enters your Being.... His answer becomes your answer.... ......................You realize that you are yourself the Light..... the essence is you .... you are..... you just are.........not ' this ' or ' that '..... not the ever -changing this or that, but ' THAT "..... the essence itself ..... That itself , which becomes ' this ' or ' that ' ......the Ocean , which itself rises as the wave and then subsides... the Silence, which itself becomes the word only to absorb the word again within itself........ One day,..... someday, you ' know '..... and when you know, all questions drop... all questions disappear.... .. and you smile.... you smile ... and your smile is the smile of knowing ...... the smile of One-ness with the Light , which you are ..... one-ness with the Guru.... and you are the Guru .... you are the Light..... The Guru looks at you and smiles ..... the smile of One-ness .... the smile, which is the Love -bond between the Guru and the Guru, which YOU are.... between the Guru and you..... AUM
