In this clip taken from discourses titled, "Experience Through Your Eyes & Experience Your Aura", Swamiji answers a question about new age gurus and the gurus from the east who amass large followers through miracles. Swamiji tells us that the acid test to determine if a guru is right is: is the association with this person adding: 1. Intelligence, 2. Awareness and 3. Bliss. If either of the above three attributes are enhanced one can go behind the guru in question. Swamiji also provides clarity on this topic through the beautiful story of Yaksha's jar. ## Link to Video: | | | | --- | --- | | **Video** | **Audio** | | [YouTube video](https://www.youtube.com/embed/MDTQ4ElsjB0?) | [SoundCloud audio](https://w.soundcloud.com/player/?url=https://soundcloud.com/nithyananda-radio/ie-2007-12dec-03_how-can-we?in=nithyananda-radio/sets/2007-playlist&auto_play=false&hide_related=false&show_comments=true&show_user=true&show_reposts=false&visual=true) | ## Photos ### 1008 Sapthayagam, Salem, Tamil Nadu, India -
