Suppose someone tells me: ‘I want to meet a great master, the greatest master there is, so I can be instructed by him. Only then will I agree to embrace the spiritual life.' Well, my reply to this ignorant, pretentious person would be that he is totally misguided. Because if he has not yet worked inwardly to understand what a spiritual master is, how to respect such a master and how to appreciate his teaching and then apply it, it would be better if such a person did not meet a great master. Why? Because he will only clash with him, he will become tangled up in all kinds of contradictions and will remain as weak and ignorant as before. So do not concern yourself with the greatness of a master; be concerned solely with how you will understand him
