& Karma. Gyana is very detached & objective, such masters have

themselves dissociated themselves from all karmas, and focus ex-
clusively on the truths of life. That is why Vairagya is such an

important quality. First things first. keep aside all goals except to

know the truth. For this a different mind-set is required, once the

truth is realized. Technocrats require a different mind-set all-to-

gether. Whoever appreciates the importance of these two things,
shall know the exact role of a teacher in life. This is very rare and

precious when we get an opportunity to explore the truth of life

completely objectively. Detachment implies an unconditioned ap-
proach. Then alone the truth is known.

So when I hear of people praising their Guru’s for some miracle

then I can just feel sorry for them. They help people to some-

how get some cherished results. Such people are ignorant. Go to a
teacher just to know the truth, thereafter plan what you need to

plan, and then work hard to get whatever result you cherish. The

validity of knowledge is the domain of a teacher, its implementa-
tion is a different story altogether. So let us wake up and realize

the role of a teacher in life.

Love & om,

Swami Atmananda
