If you are puzzled that what is that thing that is missing so that this living body is now dead body . . . this is the general impression. Now, just to get it confirmed, you come to guru. Guru will say: "Yes, it is the fact. The soul was there, and now it has gone." So how guru says? Not guru is manufacturing.

One minute before, the body was so important, and now, after one minute, the passing of the soul, it is useless; throw it away. Is it very difficult to understand? That's all. That is realization. If you don't realize . . . just like a man, sleeping, but he is not sleeping. He's awakened. But a man is calling, "Mr. Such-and-such, wake up, wake up." But he's as if sleeping. So people who do not want to realize, there is no realization. Otherwise, it is very simple. Very simple. One minute, one can understand, there was something. And then you come to the guru, and guru teaches śāstra. From śāstra, immediately you can confirm. If you are puzzled that what is that thing that is missing so that this living body is now dead body . . . this is the general impression. Now, just to get it confirmed, you come to guru. Guru will say: "Yes, it is the fact. The soul was there, and now it has gone." So how guru says? Not guru is manufacturing. Guru says on the strength of śāstra. Therefore sādhu-guru-śāstra, three things must be there. Guru must be speaking on the strength of Vedic knowledge, not manufacturing. He's a rascal. Guru cannot become by manufacturing nonsense ideas. He's not guru, he's a rascal. Whatever guru will speak must be evidenced by the śāstra. That is guru. So you go to guru.
