If you’re not feeling close to the master, it’s because of you – because of your mind, your ego concepts. Just being on the levels of formal and informal communication cannot make you feel close. “How are you?” “Where are you going?” “How have you been?”. Stop these formal and heart what is deep in your life, what is important and intimate to you. Don’t just say how much the squash costs – 30 cents or whatever.
Share what you have and don’t judge, “Oh, this is garbage.” The Master is ready to accept garbage of any extent. However you are, he will embrace you. Do not feel shame, shy, or judgmental about yourself.
If you don’t feel close to the Master, there’s no point in having a Master. He is just another burden to you, and has enough burdens already. Just say, “Goodbye.”
-Sri Sri Ravi Shankar
