The Guru

In Hinduism, the idea of a Guru to the man who is pursuing a spiritual awakening (Sadhus or others) seems central to their beliefs. One definition of Guru I found is this:

"Teacher of spiritual wisdom, literally, one who takes you from darkness to light."

Might we consider Ayahuasca to be our Guru? In my light I have had the pleasure of being taught by great gurus (plant teachers) and I feel that the greatest of them all (without devaluing others) is certainly Ayahuasca, who is not only our teacher but our healer (emotionally, physically and spiritually) as well!

Anyone disagree?

    i agreeably dis agree. :)

    just because in my very humble opinion la madrecita is teaching us that we are whole. ... that we are our own guru.. .that the time of separation is over ... that we are of the sky and the earth ... and we are perfect as such.

    she always takes me within.

      I don't know how my life would be now if I didn't have these teachers, if I was without their guidance...
