Teacher V/s Guru
If a man suffering from a disease Does not seek treatment
Even when there is a physician at hand,
It is not the fault of the physician.
In the same way, if one is oppressed And tormented by the disease of the defilements
But does not seek help from the Teacher,
That is not the teacher's fault. Jataka Nidanakatha 28-29
it is not the fault of teacher one may say
Even when there is a physician at hand,
It is not the fault of the physician.
In the same way, if one is oppressed And tormented by the disease of the defilements
But does not seek help from the Teacher,
That is not the teacher's fault. Jataka Nidanakatha 28-29
it is not the fault of teacher one may say
but if the teacher is a real guru,
he will begin to search new paths so that who can't reach to him, whatever the reason may be, also gets the benefit of treatment
Mankind has still to learn that it has tremendous capability to build the systems where average human can give good results .
in present government and social systems excellent persons reduced to give average output.
