Attachment to the Guru is good in that it helps one to free oneself from all other bondage's. One should have a strong relationship with the Guru and ardent love towards Him. Such love is blind and it should be blind in this respect. If love is not blind in the beginning, then it is not love at all. Openness of mind and expansiveness will come through that kind of blind love. This blind love in the beginning enables one to see everything as one's own Self later on. The Guru is not an individual. He is the all-pervading Consciousness, the Supreme Truth. So blind love towards the Guru will lead one to oneness with the Divine Consciousness. AMMA (Satguru Sri Mata Amritanandamayi Devi)
