Sri Swami Vishwananda about what it takes to have a harmonic Guru-disciple-relationship:
Sri Swami Vishwananda:
When the disciple comes into contact with the master, the disciple has to be...? Loyal! Loyalty!
Loyalty not only towards the master, but loyalty also towards oneself!
It’s only through loyalty towards yourself, that you will be able to be loyal towards your master and towards the outside.
The second thing you need is: obedience.
Obedience doesn’t mean slavery- Because, often people think that to be obedient is just to become the slave of the master.
No! It’s the opposite actually.
Like I said before: it’s not you, who is the slave of the master; but it’s the master, who is the slave of you.
But in the mind you have ignorance, you have the pride, the ego... all these things- That's why you have to listen to one who has already overcome it!
