About This Video
What qualities should you look for in a spiritual teacher? Lama Marut reviews the list: You should have a strong attraction to them and they should be happy (since thats what you want them to teach you!). They should be ethical, good at meditation, and intellectually know the nature of reality. Their spiritual qualities should exceed yours, they should be happily working hard to teach you, and they should know the spiritual texts that they are teaching. They should have a deep realization of ultimate reality, be a master instructor, teach because they love you, and not get discouraged and give up on you.This videocast is taken from a Diamond Mountain University course on the Bhagavad Gita taught in Tucson, Arizona, in the winter of 2008.Write to us at: podcast@aci-la.orgTo subscribe to Lama Maruts audio podcasts please go to: http://aci-la.org/mg-podcasts.htmlVisit Lama Marut's Blog at: http://www.lamamarut.orgFor complete audio teachings, please go to: http://www.aci-la.org
