Through guru principle gravity and expertise develop

July 31, 1998

When [a person with the guru principle awakened] talks to others, he talks wisdom. He doesn’t talk frivolous things, useless things and things which are of a baser level. In his own enterprises, I would say, he has a kind of a decency and a decorum, like a person tries to become an expert. A person who worships his Guru tries to be an expert in his work.

Like supposing there is a person who is an engineer. He doesn’t care for money, he doesn’t care for fame, he doesn’t care for applauses from others. What he cares is: “Does he really understand his subject matter?” It won’t be mediocrity. Musician has to be perfectly a musician. Artist has to be a perfect artist. He does not use the general methods of expertise, but his Spirit, the guidance of his Spirit he tries to improve.

Like there’s a poet, he tries to improve his poetry on the level of his Spirit, but not on the level of money. Because normally people would write things just to please the majority of the people, so they can sell their books, or something filthy which is not benevolent to the society, nor to the name of the writer, they don’t mind, they become shameless about it.

So, not that the Guru himself has the value system, but through his life style, through his own preaching, through his own behaviour, he radiates gravity to others.
