Don't be Afraid
The true guru is one who knows past, present, and future. All beings possess the same divine Ātmā. The self is God. Life consumes life, yet the human heart is intended to avoid harming creatures. In Ayurveda, plants are classified, and using roots can destroy the plant. Shiva and Shakti are inseparable unity. When Shakti entered the fire, Shiva carried her body. Vishnu performed an austerity, pledging a thousand lotuses to Shiva. One flower was missing, so Vishnu offered his eye, named Kamal Nayan. Shiva then granted Vishnu the Sudarśana discus. Vishnu used it to cut Shakti's body into fifty-two pieces, which fell as sacred sites. The Guru's power is immense; a mere spark from the Guru ignites widespread light.
"All jīvātmās in each and everyone are only one."
"Shakti will not separate, and when separated, it will cut it in pieces."
