WHERE IS MY GURU? To this question, Srila Prabhupada has said.
“That is not a problem. The problem is whether you are sincere. You have problems, but God is within your heart. Isvarah Sarva-bhutanam. God is not far away. If you are sincere, God sends you a spiritual master. Therefore God is also called caitya-guru, the spiritual master within the heart. God helps from within and from without. Everything is thus described in Bhagavad-gita.
This material body is like a machine, but within the heart is the soul, and with the soul is the Supersoul, Krsna, who gives directions. The Lord says, “You wanted to do this; nowhere is the chance. Go and do it.” If you are sincere, you say, “Now, God, I want You.” Then He will give you directions. “Yes, now you come and get Me like this.
This is His kindness. However, if we want something else, that is all right. We can have it. God is very kind. When I want something, He is in my heart directing me and telling me how to have it. So why should He not give directions on how to have a spiritual master? First of all, we must again be eager to revive our God-consciousness. Then God will give us a spiritual master.”
