Hammering from the Master




"You are blessed - If you are hammered by the Master!"

The Guru is like a potter. While a potter is creating the pot, he is clearing away the unwanted with one hand while supporting the pot from inside with the other hand. While he hammers contineously from the outside, he also goes on supporting from with in. This is the work of the Master.

If you are being hammered by the master, consider yourself blessed. It means you have earned it! A Master does not hammer anyone and everyone - hes not interested in doing that. He does it not because he enjoys hammering. He does it because of his great unimaginable and unmeasurable compassion.

The Master is a reflection. A reflection of your own inner self. You being invites the Master to hit you so that you will awaken. Why is he hitting you? The unconscious disciple sometimes doesnt understand the hit. But the hit happens only because there is a deep longing within the disciple to be awake. The master simply responds to that longing.

With maturity the disciple starts realizing and understanding the hit from the master. When a master hits, it is simply pure love. It is love because he is creating you and moulding you. Hes making you aware and responsible. He is trying to make you aware of your true nature. He is connecting you to your SELF.

But to receive this hit one needs to be deserving. A master has no vested interest in you. Hes not interested in using his anger on you just for nothing. You are his interest. So when you deserve the hit, sometimes the hit comes. And it comes only to make you a little more aware, a little more responsible, a little more conscious.

As time goes by and your awareness increases, you become aware that even while the Master is hammering at you and hitting at you, he is still loving you and supporting you. Hes always there. In any situation, whatsoever it may be, Hes always there. His loving support is always there

"When Master happens in our lives, nothing else is needed.
If he does not happen, nothing else is of use."
