Exaggerating The Guru

We, as humans, exaggerate everything.

The guru/teacher is merely a conduit for words,
which are symbols with meaning.
We decipher the meaning through experience
and realise that knowing needs no exaggeration.
We do not take someone’s word for the truth.

In exaggerating the guru, we are relating
and, as such, this is a duality.

In this way, we easily miss the whole point.
