Initiation and SpiritualityIn spirituality... initiation by a Guru is not necessary. It is not an essential must although many religious leaders emphasize upon it. I would have definitely had a spiritual guru for myself if I could find one. When I was 11 years of age I started in search of a spiritual master but could not find one. However best I tried... there was none to be found! In my life I could never find a Guru who was self realized and who truly had seen God. Whether I went to Haridwar or Rishikesh the situation remained the same. On every trip I accompanied my father I used to search for a Guru who was nowhere in sight. Ultimately, I completely resigned hoping that I would never get a chance to see God face-to-face.
One-day while I lay on a cot... a thought passed my mind. I asked of God whether he was willing to be my guide in life and to my astonishment his answer was yes! I exactly remember the dialogue I had with God. I asked of him why he had not hinted to me before, that he was willing to become my guide... my spiritual guru for all matters that are! Pat came the reply... you never asked me! This makes one thing clear that God Almighty never interferes in the creation of his. It was my ignorance that I completely forgot to ask god Almighty for the same earlier. And how did such a situation come to pass! Deeply engrossed in the thoughts of not finding a Guru... the image of Eklavya flashed my mind. I could not understand the meaning of the same. I pondered over the image of Eklavya throughout that day and the following day. Somewhere after 72 hours did I realize that Eklavya had no guru in his times! Essay
