The Four-Letter Word
The word “Guru” literally means “dispeller of darkness.” He is there to throw light on the very nature of your existence. The problem is that you suffer a play of your memory and imagination. You need to take charge of it, and not annihilate it. Teachings like “be in the moment,” “do only one thing at a time,” and “positive thinking,” are limited and do not work in the long term.
The only solution for all the ills that plague humanity is self-transformation. Self-transformation is a dimensional shift in the way you perceive and experience life. Self-transformation is achieved by experiencing the limitless nature of who we are.
For me, that self-transformation is the attainment of The Static Viewpoint.
