Can it be helpful to have a guru in your lifetime, especially when you yourself have a black nights the soul to proceed through? I've read that people all need some type of help undo all that people have learned acim youtube. That's where Intercessory prayer will come in or perhaps a Guru with preferably a lineage that shows they've done this kind of sort out the generation of the family. Everything has related to the power of the individual and the group they travel with in spirit.
I study A Course in Miracles and discover that I have grown tremendously in combination with all the other spiritual books and work I have now been doing. However, I see since even my guru has some unlearning to do. The Course teaches us never put anyone on a platform and I see now. It has brought me annually and another dark night to note that I've put aside me understanding that there is another way to take care of my illness. It was as a result of this guru that I postponed pursuing this. I believe the lesson maybe that people all have the power within us and when my guru speaks like any other in life I must discern the knowledge and go within for the final answer. Whenever I push away that urge I find obstacles in my path. So I'm confused, I view a major change in me with this guru but at the same time I get the advice can conflict with my most inner beliefs and am forced to listen. I thought I must listen for this is actually the lesson: Tune in to the REAL SOURCE- the main one WITHIN. Please help me with see what else I might be missing.
Thanks for the heartfelt and sincere email. Role models (such as gurus or teachers or guides) are very useful stepping stones because the ego is undone. They could be inspirational and very supportive witnesses to the mind's desire to Wake Up. They could offer very useful and practical advice, teachings, and examples. Yet accepting the Atonement (Correction) is THE sole responsibility and this can be a decision of mind that transcends the idea of personhood. Persons don't become enlightened, for your head that believes itself to become a person is asleep and dreaming of exile from the Oneness of Spirit. Whilst the deceived mind believes in linear time, Awakening will seem that occurs in stages. Throughout the seeming "process" of Awakening, symbols are employed by the Holy Spirit as stepping stones that reflect higher or even more expansive states of consciousness. A guru can be quite a symbol of the potential for Enlightenment, yet the ability of Enlightenment is impersonal, unconditional, and abstract. The ultimate dark night is always the temptation to retain an expression of individuality, privacy, autonomy, and uniqueness. All perceived darkness reflects the belief in private minds with private thoughts. Mind is one in forgiveness and One in Truth.
It's wonderful that you will be simply because the lesson of discernment always rests with the perceiver. Use your feelings as a barometer in this discernment, for how you feel is the main one right use of judgment until it is apparent that any judgment is entirely impossible. Follow the Joy! Follow the Bliss! As you look within and make no attempt to safeguard or defend the ego, you'll feel the Love the ego was made to hide. Love simply Is, and when the obstacles to the awareness of Love's Presence have now been removed only Love remains.
When you consider the idea of guru contemplate this:
Gee YoU aRe YoU
This is actually the gentle reminder: I am as God created Me.
This is actually the Power of Now.
This is actually the simplicity of Being.
The fact is simple. The ego was the illusion of confusion and complexity.
