A Gnani is not a Guru or disciple of any Guru. Only in the religious and yogic path is the idea of Guru and disciple is applicable.

The Guru and disciple and the world in which Guru and disciple exist are created out a single stuff. That single stuff is consciousness. Consciousness is the ultimate truth or Brahman or God in truth.

By identifying as a Guru or some Guru’s disciple keeps one in the cage of ignorance. A person who identifies himself as a guru or disciple will never be able to get Advaitic Gnana.

Guru, disciple concept is meant for the religious and yogic path. In the Atmic path, the Guru and disciple concept have no value.

A person who realized the ultimate truth or Brahman will throw off his religious robe and all religious identity and lives like a commoner. He never identifies himself as Gnani nor does he identify himself superior to others. He only shares his knowledge with the fellow seekers.

A Gnani never identifies himself as a Guru or a Yogi or someone disciple. The one who accepts himself as a Guru or someone’s disciple is not a Gnani.

Ashtavakra Samhita: ~ "The man of knowledge (Gnani), though living like an ordinary man, is contrary to him and only those like him understand his state.

A Gnani can point at the sky, but the seeing of the star is the seeker's own work.

The truth seeker seeks only truth. The inner Sage will guide you with love. Your sincerity and seriousness lead you to your inner core. The sincere and serious seekers are not excluded.

Remember:~

The religious Guru is nothing to do with Gnana he is more concerned with serving humanity.

Seekers of truth must path alone because he has to mentally transcend the illusory world in which he exists. Holding anything of the world as reality blocks him from realizing the truth hidden by the illusory world in which he exists.

Sage Sankara clearly indicates in Viveka Chudamani (2) that the Knower of the Atman (A Gnani) "bears no outward mark of a holy man." (Stanza 539).

A Gnani wears no signs which means he does not identify himself as Guru or teacher or swami or yogi.

~ It means the one who wears the religious robes is not a Gnani because he identifies himself with his birth entity and his inherited religion. Thus he accepts the birth entity as the Self and the world as reality, whereas the Self is birthless and deathless because it is a formless, timeless, and spaceless existence.

The one who identifies himself as Swami, Guru, or yogi is not a Gnani. A Gnani never identifies himself as Swami, Guru, pundit, or yogi. Swami, Guru, pundit, or yogi belongs to the religious and yogic path, not to the path of truth or wisdom.

Sage Sankara: ~ "Though I wear these robes of a Sanyasin, it is only for the sake of bread."

Thus, it proves that the religious Gurus and Yogis are not Gnanis because they identified themselves as holy people.

A Gnani never claims himself as a Gnani, he guides the seekers, not posing himself as a Guru, and he does not force his wisdom on others.:~Santthosh Kumaar
