The Guru Is Greater Than the Philosopher's Stone
The Guru Is Greater Than the Philosopher's Stone
A guru wants only the welfare of his disciple, and his glory is greater than the paras (the legendary stone that turns iron to gold). The paras only makes iron into gold, but a saint makes you like himself, so become a disciple who carries the guru's qualities.
Touch iron with the paras stone and it can only make gold. The paras cannot make another paras. But when a saint makes someone his own, he makes him like himself.
