II श्रीराम जय राम जय जय राम II

सतगुरू मिला जु जानिए, ज्ञान उजाला होय I
भ्रम का भांडा तोडि करि, रहे निराला होय II

"Kabir says, 'Sadguru' is he who, by the collyrium-rod of Knowledge, opens the eyes of those who are rendered blind by the darkness of ignorance. He is God Himself manifesting in a personal form to guide the aspirant. The Grace of God takes the form of 'Sadguru.' He is verily a link between the individual and the Immortal. He is a being who has raised himself from this into That, and thus has a free and unhampered access to both the realms. He stands, as it were, upon the threshold of immortality; and bending down, he raises the struggling individuals with his one hand, and with the other lifts them up into the empyrean of everlasting joy and infinite Truth-Consciousness.
A 'Sadguru' is absolutely necessary for every aspirant in the spiritual path. It is only the 'Sadguru' who will find out your defects. The nature of egoism is such that you will not be able to find out your own defects. Just as a man cannot see his back, so also he cannot see his own errors. He must live under a 'Sadguru' for the eradication of his evil qualities and defects, for then only he is safe from being led astray. 'Sadguru' is an armour and fortress to guard you against all temptations and unfavourable forces of the material world."
