Is the statement, ‘When the student is ready, master appears’ right?
Yes, the statement is right. When the student is ready, master appears. Sometimes, even when the student is not ready, out of compassion, master appears. He gives the possibility. Even people who are not ready can take the quantum jump. So I extend my hand for the possibility.

Swamiji, I would like to know the purpose of our life, the world, the universe and our god.
If you know the purpose of your life, you will be able to understand the other three automatically. The purpose of your life is the purpose of the universe. The purpose of the universe is the purpose of god. It means the purpose of your life is the purpose of god. Be very clear, find out…

How does trust develop between a disciple and a master? Is the disciple justified in demanding some proof or does the master expect unconditional surrender?
First thing, neither can the disciple have unconditional surrender nor can he stop asking for proof. Disciple means he will be demanding solid proof from the master to prove he is authentic. Second thing, he will not have all the qualifications to be a real disciple. That is a disciple. He will not be a…

Does the master choose the disciple or does the disciple choose the master?
Does the master choose the disciple or does the disciple choose the master? First thing, it is actually the disciple who chooses the master. Because master never chooses. The master just showers. He is like the sacred river Ganga. He just flows. If you want, you will enter the river, immerse yourself, drink or play…

Staying in the presence of an enlightened being will straightaway change the hardware for it to hold on to the transformation and the software and the entire process.
There is an interesting research done by the Institute of HeartMath, USA: In this experiment, the characteristics of light-photons were studied in a light scattering chamber.

Sudden click or connection with the master and his teachings of truth is what I call ‘initiation’
Whenever you need to heal yourself, whenever you need inner healing, you need to bring yourself again to the life energy. Many times you can see, a simple disturbance from the outside world or from the past memory inside you can drain your energy. Another thing that drains your energy is taking too many decisions.…

When you are caught in an engram, just be in the Avatar’s presence, you will be completely healed of it.
A beautiful incident from the enlightened master, Ramana Maharishi’s life: There was a disciple who was writing the Ramana Purana, verses in praise of Ramana Maharishi. But he had what you call the ‘writer’s block’ and he was stuck at one point. Somehow, whenever you write with ego, the ‘writer’s block’ will happen. Anyhow, that…

When I say ‘I will take care’, I am actually giving you the stick with which you should stand up!
When you are with the master, be completely open. Don’t be frozen. Understand that life is a lot more than logic. Let go of your logic and be completely open and aware. When you let go and are open, the master is such a live energy that you will be transformed. You will be a new…

How beautifully does a Master-Disciple relationship exists and flowers!
There are many levels in the master-disciple relationship. The first is purely at the intellectual level, based on doubt more than anything else. Numerous doubts keep coming up all the time. You think, ‘Eh! He seems to be hardly thirty years of age. How can he be a master? He doesn’t seem to be highly…

One path is the attitude of the mother towards her child, looking at the master as your child. This is called vatsalya bhava which is how Yashoda, Krishna’s foster mother, related with…

I am not here to prove my divinity. I am here to prove your divinity!
The poet-mystic, Kabir sings beautifully, ‘Master and god both appear before me. To whom should I prostrate? I bow before the master. He introduced god to me.’ Swami Vivekananda, in one of his discussions with fellow disciples of Ramakrishna Paramahamsa, referred to Ramakrishna as god. Another disciple objected saying, ‘Surely this is taking it to…

You may not have the intelligence to always learn correctly from life, which is why an Avatar happens in your life!
You may ask, ‘Why do I need a master? I can learn from life.’ Learning from the master is a very sweet experience, a very joyful experience. The master first puts you in his lap and gives you the anesthesia of love before he starts his operation on the tumor of your ego. Because he…
