Wisdom of the Guru
The word “guru” comes over to English as “gravity”. Guru denotes a center of gravity. The root “gu” stands for darkness; “ru” for its removal. The guru, or the teacher, is one who sheds light in the darkness of avidya (ignorance).
The guru is one who understands the law of gravity and other basic laws of the universe, including the laws of impermanence and the truth of duhkha (suffering). Although sometimes embodied in an external person or entity, the guru is actually your own center of gravity. The manifestations of these teachings is ultimately experienced within one’s own body and mind so that the heart opens up, revealing an internal center of gravity.
Connecting with one’s center of gravity is the embodiment of stillness. A center of gravity is finding in oneself and others both the stillness of non-reactivity and the vitality of compassionate and wise action.
