“Look, there is no point in blindly believing that after I touch you, you will be saved, or that the chariot from heaven will be waiting for you. Because of the Guru’s attainment, the sanctifying touch becomes a helper in the blossoming of knowledge and being respectful towards having of acquiring this blessing, you must yourself become a sage and proceed on the path to elevate your soul by applying the techniques of sadhana given by the Guru.” – Swami Sri Yukteswar
