Summary:

Offers inspiring teachings on various aspects of the Guru-disciple or student-teacher relationship―from how to find a qualified outer Guru to discovering your own Guru within. Throughout the history of humankind there have always been human beings who felt there must be more to life than what is offered by the physical, emotional, intellectual and socio-political realms alone. Therefore they sought a higher wisdom or spiritual enlightenment. Many have found themselves in need of someone who has traveled the spiritual path successfully and could guide them toward the understanding they sought. Thus has the Guru and disciple (or spiritual teacher and student) relationship found a place in nearly every spiritual tradition in the world.
