2. A real Guru

```

Who is a real Guru?

A real Guru is he

Who does not call you stupid,

Undivine and useless.

A real Guru is he who says:

“You have knowledge,

But you need more knowledge.

Try, you certainly can!”

A real Guru is he who says:

“You are divine,

But you can be more divine.

Try, you certainly can!”

A real Guru is he who says:

“You are useful,

Infinitely more useful

Than you ever can imagine.

But you can be more useful.

Try, you certainly can!”

A real Guru is he who says:

“You are God’s chosen instrument.

You are useful,

You are fruitful,

You are indispensable

To the divine Vision of God.” ```
