The World Beyond is also temporary


Lord Prabuddha continues:
Following the dialogues about conquering Maya, the discussion revolves  on:henceforth, those who want to pass over to the other shore of  Maya, they should also understand that the next world where we go after this bodily death - the next world, the world beyond is also ruin oriented or destruction-prone. Because, like this world, that world also is the fruit of our limited good works of the current life. There also, competition takes its toll, jealousy mounts with those people who have more happiness and properties, hatred against those who have less or are inferior. Point is, in the world beyond also, life is temporary and fall is imminent once our time is completed. Ruin is certain. Freedom from fear is nowhere to be found.
Therefore, those who are inquisitive, or desirous of getting absolution, should surrender with Guruji. Guruji - the teacher should be capable, who has mastered spiritual knowledge consisting in words, who has the verbal authority and to explain metaphysical scriptures (Sabda Bramha) in a transparent way, who is also the intellect of Vedas, and from which knowledge he could deliver the right knowledge to his students. He should be a wise learned man of philosophy, philosophy based on the Supreme Spirit (Para Bramha). The Guru, therefore, is such an experienced person who is able to teach the mystery of Absolute Knowledge. His mind should be calm, not interested and involved in paraphernalia of this illusive world. The curious student should take him as his most loved inner self and consider him to be his favorite God, sort of his tutelary supreme. He should serve the Guru without deceit or contempt and try learn from him the holy, the divine religion and accept the ascetic education of means of being a true devotee to attain Godhood.
