Sheep follow their leader even unto jumping over the cliff. Sheep trust implicitly that the leader knows. To the minds of most mankind, it often seems foolish to follow a Guru or Spiritual Teacher in many of his decisions and teachings. I tell you truly, if you are to advance spiritually into freedom, you must follow the instructions and teachings of your chosen Guru implicitly. If you cannot do this and also extol your Guru, then it is best after a time of trial and testing to consider leaving his presence before stagnation solidifies.
