The
guru is one of the most important concepts of Hindu Sanatan Dharma. The word
‘guru’ can be defined as one who dispels the darkness of ignorance. The term
guru was originally used to refer a spiritual teacher, but over time has come
to refer to any teacher. The main duties of the guru are to perform the
initiation ritual of aspirants into satsang, dikshã ceremony of youths into
renunciation, murti pratishthã ritual, and offer discourses to devotees. The
guru pacifies the inner turmoils of countless followers by meeting, counseling,
and blessing them, whether in person, through letters, or telephone calls. He
strikes a rapport with the devotees, fulfills their wishes, and inspires love
for and faith in Bhagwan. It is through the guru that the disciple realizes and
attains Bhagwan.
