________________ 'Jenu antar khuli shake chhe,tej sadhana ma khili shake chhe!' 'One, who can unlock his heart, can bloom in his spiritual endeavor!' A seeker can never become a worshipper without confessing all his mistakes before his Guru! Virtues can be firmly established only after vices are removed. Why does peace only last for a short time? Even if virtues are established, they are temporary... The reason is, we have not indulged in selfintrospection, self-criticism and confessed our sins (aalochana), not condemnedour sins (ninda) and not confessed our sins to our Guru (garha). We have not disclosed our faults before our Guru. One gets ENTRY into the religion of Parmatma, only ifone UNFOLDS before his Guru. To open-up the heart before Satguru means to review the heart in all its totality, to analyze the feelings... to scrutinize all the actions...! Who am I? Where am I? What am I? Review your inner soul and confess your mistakes - disclose everything before your Guru. Jambuswami asked Guru Sudharmaswami, = 85 -
