不要崇拜或是盲目偶像化 Do Not Worship Or Idolize

沒有歸屬感的崇拜與盲目的偶像化永遠是徒勞無益的，那樣的崇拜只會造成恐懼與距離。
而另有些人則對崇拜非常反感，看到別人在崇拜時，他們就氣惱。
崇拜或是盲目偶像化的表現方式在世界各處或許都不一樣。有些人崇拜大主教，有些人崇拜明星，有些人則是瘋狂於一些政治家。看看所有的小孩子，他們所崇拜的是貼滿牆上的海報上的英雄。
單單只是崇拜會使你成為一個迷戀者。而歸屬感及在你所崇拜的人身上看到神，則使你成為一個聖者。
若谷：你是說我們可以在明星或政治家身上看到神？
古儒吉：假如你可以的話，那是個被扭曲了的神。（笑聲）
那些崇拜而不具歸屬感的人，與那些反對崇拜的人是半斤八兩的，因為兩者都充滿了恐懼。
聖經上說：「我是你們的神，在我之前你們沒有別的神。」古印度的經典上也有同樣的說法：「一個崇拜神，而視神與『我存在』的意識分離的人是個傻子」，此外又說：「不要崇拜其他神明。」
供奉、受供奉者與供奉的人全都是一個人。

Do not worship or idolize worship. Idolizing without a sense of belongingness is always futile. Such worship only causes fear and distance. And there are others who are paranoid about worship. They get irritated by seeing others worshipping. The modes of worship or idolizing may be different in different parts of the world. Some worship the pope ; others worship the pop stars. Some are crazy about the politicians. Look at all the children. They worship their heroes all over the walls. Just adoration makes you a fan. Having a sense of belongingness and seeing the Divinity in those whom you adore, makes you a saint.
Raghu: You mean we can see Divinity in a pop star or politician.
Guruji: If You can;..A Divinity that is distorted ( laughter) Those who worship without a sense of belongingness and those who are against worship are in the same boat as both are clogged with fear. In the Bible, it says, " I am your God. And you shall have no other before me. " The same is said in the ancient Indian scriptures. "One who worships God as separate from the "I am" consciousness is dull headed". And " Poojo aur na deva".Do not worship other Gods. The offering, the offered and the offerer are all ONE.
Jai Guru Dev
