Guru is an embodiment of love, knowledge and wisdom. He is the one who uplifts you from whatever you have been, to a better person. A guru bring you from the flashing lights of the world, people and money to the subtle, but most powerful light of the knowledge and the soul. His presence itself in your life will highlight the unknown before knowledge to you. The realizations. A guru is the one who lets us follow our own path, not his. He is the one who makes you independent, not a follower. He is the one who is solely interested in your growth. He makes you learn everything by your own self. He is the one who is behind you, to push you ahead in life.
