Guru says, he himself goes to various Gurus, and still goes – yet, all Gurus differ in their ways and procedures. He was able to…because, he never used his prejudices and expectations, he put them all aside.
Prejudices and expectations are the greatest hindrance, if you expect, you will see the result under your expectations, under your limitations; if expectation is met then Guru is fine else not. If, Guru compares between prejudice and expectation then he finds that prejudice is the inner center of expectation, it is more deep, subtle and harmful than expectation – it has layers and layers of certain beliefs and thoughts built upon it.
Guru can give you more than your expectations but Guru can’t change your prejudices. Because expectation is on the surface they can be operated well, but prejudices can’t be operated – Guru is helpless in this. Only you need to make efforts to put them aside.
You can only listen to a Guru, if you don’t use your prejudices and expectations; if you do, you will only listen according to the prejudices and expectations and it will not be the "right listening." You will distort the words, sentences, and meaning and translate them according to your limited memory.
Guru words are like the distilled water, and it doesn’t need impurities of prejudices and expectations. If, once, the distilled water is given to you, make it safe, it will help you to take the injection of divine experience.
