\"Guruji\"<\/p>\n

An ardent devotee is always engaged in righteous activities while spreading the words of his Guru. He doesn’t fear anyone since he is empowered by his Guru. By forgoing his intellect and ego, he immediately jumps into action as soon as he receives the command from\u00a0his Master. The divine qualities of the Guru rubs on him and inspires the devotee to serve the society. He becomes dispassionate and fearless and turns indifferent towards both failure and triumph. Neither he fears the society nor is concerned about his personal gain and loss. As quoted in Shri Guru Bhagavat:<\/span><\/p>\n

(Vol. 1 Verse 184, Page 88)<\/span><\/em><\/p>\n

The resolute devotee doesn’t fear even death while salvaging the imprudent society and replacing it with a sensible one. He is able to accomplish the toughest assignments easily as he always remembers his Guru while performing his duty. The power of the Guru is transmitted to such a devotee while he accomplishes the instruction of the Guru. He gets completely immersed in implementing his orders like a paranoid. For such a devotee, Selfless-service becomes a part of his value-system<\/em> and a core precept of his life.<\/span><\/p>\n

Being associated with the Guru, the staunch devotee gets familiar with the nature of the Guru. The boundary and dimension of his service expands, and the devotee is assigned with challenging tasks. Along with the opportunity to do great work, the devotee is bestowed with honor and fame. All impediments which arise while executing the Guru\u2019s order is resolved easily by his grace. There is peace and harmony in his family. The devotee slowly starts to understand the divine play (\u201cLeela\u201d) of the Guru, his faith multiplies, along with his courage and competence.<\/span><\/p>\n
