In the book “Guru and Disciple”, Gnani Purush (embodiment of Self knowledge) Dada Bhagwan provides insight into the nature of the Guru-disciple relationship and offers in-depth answers to questions such as: “What is spirituality and spiritual transformation, and how is a Guru necessary in this?” “What is the definition of Guru, and what is disciple?” “How does a spiritual Guru differ from a spiritual teacher, a spiritual advisor, or from spiritual people in general?” “A spiritual life requires spiritual awakening into self realization. How do I find a Guru with the spiritual power to grant me spiritual enlightenment?” “Among the many spiritual teachers accessible today, do I need to find a Guru with a certain level of spiritual development or spiritual awareness?” For those on a spiritual quest, seeking spiritual growth, or simply desirous of spiritual guidance, this book provides an invaluable resource among the spiritual books available on the Guru-disciple topic.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This is the story of the holy or mystic life in India, as told by a disciple reminiscing upon many years of association with his beloved Hindu teacher. Though a narrative blend of actual incidents in the lives of several disciples, Mr. Hall has personally known the principal characters of the story but has made changes in names and places, in deference to the wish of the Oriental mystics. Here the Eastern way of life is made comprehensible so Westerners may learn the great truths in the same simple and beautiful way they are taught in India.

Book excerpt: Millions of people have been deeply affected by the life and teachings of the Guru Narayana, who is the central figure of this book. This is a biography, not only of the Guru Narayana, but of Guruhood itself. Religions and philosophies have their sources in such men, and the aim here is to clarify this fact, without being sentimental or sensational. In doing so, many hitherto baffling enigmas of Indian life are given a rational explanation for the first time. Nataraja Guru, the disciple-successor of the Narayana Guru, uses the contemplative discipline which was characteristic of the Guru Narayana, and brings the Advaita Vedanta method into the forefront of global thought as understood today, introducing a new science of wisdom-dialectics. Nataraja Guru¿s scheme of correlation between science and mysticism amounts to an epochal advance in philosophy. The word of the Guru provides a quantity of original material for study, including fully annotated and carefully translated writings of Guru Narayana. It describes the physical and psychological conditions of South India with great brilliance. The spirituality of India is set forth here in its clearest terms, unambiguous and shorn of all limiting frontiers, suitable for readers in all parts of the world.

Book excerpt: These Interviews in their variety and originality have achieved classic status. They were first published in New York in 1989, enlarged and reprinted in India in 2004, but in this edition now appear for the first time complete and unabridged in the definitive version as prepared by the author, Malcolm Tillis, who travelled the length and breadth of India to collect them during the 11 years he lived in this extraordinary country. They were given by Westerners from different cultures and backgrounds who had also been drawn to the India of mystics and gurus in search of spiritual fulfilment. Their adventures, hardships, goals, attainments and their different spiritual practises are discussed in depth. There are also many humorous incidents we can enjoy and relate to. Several of those interviewed have since become well known as writers, some have become gurus themselves with their own followers, a few have reached iconic status.
