| Queen Kunti is praying |
Baba Lokenath was the most practical teacher who always had a very direct approach to teach his children. Once asked by a devotee, who is a Guru, Baba responded, " theka, thekai guru, je jekhane theke sekhane sekhe". By these words he meant that each and every obstacles in life is Guru, because we learn only when we are stuck only when we have deep problems, we come out with practical lessons. Baba is saying Guru is the one who takes you beyond all the difficulties and darkness of life. Hence, obstacles are our true teachers.
Vira Chandra: Queen Kunti is praying in Srimad Bhagavatam 1.8.25:
vipadaḥ santu tāḥ śaśvat
tatra tatra jagad-guro
bhavato darśanaṁ yat syād
apunar bhava-darśanam
O Guru of the universe! May we have those calamities happen again and again, because in those dangers we will see you, and by that, we will gain release from this material world.
