Question: Accepting a Guru For Sake of Having a Guru
What is the difference between the siksha guru
and the diksha guru? Can only serious persons choosing the path of nirvana take diksha? Or can a worldly person who wants to have guru just for
the sake of guru be entitled for that? Does the guru impart the same kind of knowledge to both
categories? Or does he give the most confidential
knowledge only to selected disciples?

Answer
There is little difference between the siksha and diksha guru. Both of them are full manifestations of the mercy of God. Both of them purely impart the knowledge and mercy coming down from God through the chain of disciplic succession. The one difference is that diksha guru formally initiates the disciple into spiritual life and becomes his eternal spiritual authority.
The spiritual master is only for those who are
serious about escaping the cycle of repeated birth and death. Accepting a guru in name only has no value. There is no sense in accepting a guru as a
matter of fashion just as someone may keep a dog. Guru means where you fully surrender yourself without argument. Otherwise do not
accept a guru.
The spiritual master gives the same knowledge to
all,but it is only realised to the extent that the
disciple fully surrenders himself at the lotus feet
of guru and God. Without surrender we will never
realise the full import of the Vedic wisdom as
explained to all by the spiritual master

Starting from Left, the 2nd person is great Jugol Kishore Brahmachari (mark x at Shirt). A great work indeed.
