"It is the intensity of faith you have in the guru's words that is most important; once that is there, grace flows automatically. The faith in the guru is based on the consciousness within, faith in one's Self. The love for the beingness I am trying to dircet to a higher level. What is lasting is this love for the Self, on which temples have been build. This Christ-consciousness is existing; is it faith in a man? As a man, Christ was crucified, but that universal consciousness which was his (and her's) lives today." (Sri Nisargadatta Maharaj - Prior to Conscousness)
