If a disciple, after following a Guru for a long time, should spurn him, then he actually spurns the help sent by God. A Guru is not a help for this life only. He also makes a spiritual soul-contact with the disciple, and says: “Let our friendship be eternal, and let us help each other through incarnations until we are both 11 completely emancipated in spirit. Sometimes, likewise, an advanced disciple can help a Guru, and vice versa. Such friendship is not based on any selfish consideration or on any condition. Such Divine friendship and perpetual good will expressed between two or more souls gives birth to the ever-pure, unselfish, allemancipating, Divine Love. My Master [* Master–one’s spiritual preceptor; one knowing his dominion over the Cosmos.] said to me, “I will be your friend from now until Eternity, no matter whether you are on the lowest mental plane or on the highest plane of wisdom. I will be your friend if ever you should err, for then you will need my friendship more than at any other time.” When I accepted my Master’s unconditional friendship, he said: “Will you be my friend under all circumstances? Will, you protect me in my highest or in my lowest strata of mind?” I was stupefied, for how could I dream of my Master being in the lowest strata, but until I vowed to be his friend always, under all circumstances, he did not rest. He was gladdened when I said, “I will be thine always.” It was then, after this amazing spiritual compact, that I understood the significance of a Guru, and really, I never found complete satisfaction, comfort, and God-consciousness until I turned myself in with the Divine consciousness of my Master.
