Surrender to the guidance given by the guru. Sometimes the direction which guru asks you to walk might look like a longer distance and all you have to do is surrender and walk that path. If you ignore and try to take the shortcut it may look like a shorter distance but remember that the stones and thorns in that route will make your walk more challenging and painful and takes more time to reach the destination.
In any challenging situations being calm and handling things with much patience might look like a longer distance but when you ignore the guidance and fail to practice it you will end up steping into the shortcut which is filled with stones and thorns called anger, fear, insecurity which leads to restlessness. This makes your journey more painful and sometimes it might take away your capability to walk.
Always be courageous,hold on to truth, be selfless. If you cannot be happy in others happiness then how can one take the path which leads to Blissfulness.
Always remember being courageous at the right time for the right reason will avoid many unpleasant events in life.
Be happy, Blessings !!
