Swami Rama says: So sometimes guidance helps. When you are not successful in completing, accomplishing what you want? After making effort, then somebody whom you trust, who is really selfless, who doesn’t charge fees for these things, you should sit and say, “This is my problem. Can you help me?”
If he’s a good teacher, he’ll say, “Well, if it’s within my field, I will. If it is not within my field, I am sorry, you should find out somewhere, or you should go to such and such person.” It becomes easy.
I give you practices and you never come and see me—never tell me what the problem is. I ask you “How are you doing?”
“Fine.” Even if you are sick, you call “Fine.”
Now, perhaps I can help you, serve you. Help you means serve you. It benefits me instead of benefiting you. My master always used to say, highest of the culture, peak of the culture of human civilization is that when every human being likes to work for others. Then the whole world will have a society of joyous people.
Unfortunate thing is, everyone, all of us, are selfish. A teacher is selfish—he wants something from the student. He looks at the pockets of the student. And the student looks at teacher to know—but never practices. Sheer curiosity. “I want to know more.”
You want to know more, but how about practicing?
“That guarantee I cannot give, sir.”
