Guru Gita 3/172 There are so many types of gurus on earth But, one should select to serve only Param guru. Shiva said: There are so many types of Gurus, more are fraud and the real do not show up. The one who want realisation should select only a Param Guru. The identity of Param Guru is given here. Sri Yukteswer was a Param Guru. He gave samadhi to Yogananda, and taught him what is God. He said "God is near and dear. After the mind been cleared by Kriya Yoga of sensory obstacles, meditation furnishes a twofold proof of God. God is ever- new joy is evidence of His existence, convincing to our very atoms. Also, in meditation one finds His instant guidance, His adequate response to every difficulty." Human life is beat with sorrows until we know how to tune with the Divine Will." God bears the burden of the cosmos; He alone can give unerring counsel." Oh God, guide us to knowledge and lead to liberation.

Each morning, Maya recited verses honoring her guru, feeling part of something magnificent. The frightening depths of ego dissolved into stunning clarity. She'd found her balanced path.
