A Guru is a spiritual guide, who has raised his spirit to such a level where they can be one with God Almighty. The Gurus are the light bearers to mankind. They do not teach new doctrine but only renew the eternal wisdom.
Gurus are eternal men who free our minds from bigotry and superstition, rituals and stereotyped actions. They are divine beings who teach all thought in gentle voice of conscience. They appear outside as human form to those who crave for visible and physical guides.
Guru is God like in power, a creator, a protector and a destroyer. Guru has got the power to punish the evil doer and to protect the virtuous and the poor.
