The Signs of meeting a Perfect Master 

There are many signs for ascertaining that one has met a Perfect Master. The most significant of these is that one gets a first hand-experience, a living contact with Naam, the Light of God und the Voice of God.

The wish of the Master then – which, in fact, is the wish of the Lord, since the Master is merged in the Lord and there is no distinction between them – becomes the willing duty of the disciple. He then treads the Path of obedience and submission.

Your law is infinite, and nobody can fully comprehend it; he who meets a Master, treads the path ordained by Him.

Your Command is infinite; no one can find its limit. One who meets with the Perfect Guru, walks in the Way of the Lord’s Will.

Guru Arjan Dev –
Adi Granth, Asa M5, p. 396
