With the yoga of guruttam one becomes heavy; one becomes guruttam. Guru means heavy and when something is heavy, it will sink. Ast he sinks, he also takes down everyone around with him. When does guru not sink? He will not sink when he has the key gurukilli that helps him float. Laghu means light and guru means heavy. Those who want to be big and famous have grabbed on to the guruttam yoga. Everyone wants to be big and they have all taken a beating in the process, they have died in such beatings, life after life. No one succeeds because how many can take the first prize in a horse race? How many horses win the trophy? If five million 'horses' run a race, how many will come first? The first prize goes only to the winning horse, does it not? The rest die huffing and puffing. Therefore, practice the laghuttam yoga.
Questioner: Yes, but what is the vidhi special method for it?
Dadashri: The vidhi is to become a disciple of everone in this world. If someone calls you unworthy then become his disciple by saying, "You are my guru because you made me aware that I am unworthy."
The world's guru? No the world is the guru
And people tell me, 'We want to make you our guru.' I tell them, 'No. Do not make me a guru. There are many gurus elsewhere. I have made the whole world as my guru. I consider you all my guru. Why are you making me a guru?"
I am nobody's guru. I am a laghuttam purush. I am not naïve that I would become a guru. I have never been anyone's guru. I live as the disciple of the whole world and I tell everyone to become laghuttam. Whoever wants to become a guru let him be. But how can a guru swim across the ocean of the worldly life and help others swim across too? Such gurus have to keep a gurukili with them so that they are able to swim and help others do the same. The Gnani can give them the gurukilli to become laghuttam, then they may become a guru. Otherwise, to become a guru in the current time cycle is a sign of going down to a lower life form. Gurus of the DwaparTreta the previous eras of the current time cycle were true gurus. And now? Now they do not even have the gurukilli as a guru. So I tell the gurus, 'Do not become a guru otherwise you will sink and drown others too. Take the gurukilli from me.' One has to have the gurukilli. When 'we' give that
