CH-6 : PRACTICE OF GURU-BHAKTI

9. Nature of Obedience - 69 to 80


69. Obedience is willingness to obey the commands of Guru and elders.

70. Only the disciple who obeys his Guru can have command over his lower self.

71. From obedience to Guru springs all other divine virtues, such as humility, devotion, egolessness, etc.

72. True obedience to Guru neither procrastinates nor questions.

73. Obedience to Guru is the mother of success in all undertakings.

74. True obedience to Guru is the performance of what is commanded by him and abstaining from what is prohibited.

75. A hypocritical disciple obeys his Guru from fear. The true disciple obeys his Guru with pure love, for love’s sake.

76. Let the disciple’s first lesson be obedience to Guru.

77. Goodness is a river that flows from the Lotus-Feet of the Lord by the path of obedience to Guru.

78. If the heart of the disciple is not satisfied, it shows that obedience to Guru is not fully observed by the disciple.

79. Your offerings please Guru according to your zeal and Bhava and not according to their nature.

80. The disciple should serve his master with great zeal and care.

Then the philosophical idea will become firm. Through right-thinking, reasoning, introspection and meditation, you will have to clarify your ideas. Then confusion will vanish. The thoughts will get settled and well-grounded. Think clearly. Clarify your ideas again and again. Introspect in solitude. Purify your thoughts to a considerable degree. Silence the thoughts. Do not allow the mind to bubble. Let one thought-wave rise and settle down calmly. Then allow another thought to enter. Drive off all extraneous thoughts that have no connection with the subject-matter you are handling at th
