Word by Word
The path to Truth is not solitary—it requires us to approach a realized master with genuine humility, asking sincere questions, and offering our service without expectation. The guru becomes a mirror reflecting what we already are, but cannot yet see in ourselves.
In our modern age of endless information and self-help, we have forgotten that transformation happens in relationship, through vulnerability, and in the willingness to be corrected by those who have walked the path before us.
