How to be a Guru
None
My Life in Orange
In 1981 Tim Guest was taken by his mother to a commune in a small village in Suffolk. It was modelled on the teachings of the famous Indian "guru", Bhagwan Shree Rajneesh, who preached an eclectic doctrine of Eastern mysticism, chaotic therapy and sexual freedom. Both were given Sanskrit names, dressed entirely in orange and instructed to completely abandon their former identities. Tim - or Yogesh, as he was now known - spent the rest of his childhood in Bhagwan's various communes in England, Oregon, Pune and Cologne. While his mother meditated, chanted and ran therapy groups, Yogesh lived a life of unsupervised freedom, occasionally catching glimpses of the strange behaviour of the adults around him. In 1985 the movement collapsed after Bhagwan's arrest and Yogesh was once again Tim, about to start life at a secondary school in North London, alone with the secret of his extraordinary childhood. In his first book, now in a new edition, Guest describes the other-worldly experience of growing up in an environment of unsupervised freedom and often disturbing adult behaviour.

Sri Guru Gita
Gott ist Liebe. Gott ist Alles. Gott ist Guru. Der Guru ist nicht von dieser Welt, auch wenn Er sie erschaffen hat - und wir sind ohne Ihn nicht in der Lage, diese Welt der Begrenzungen hinter uns zu lassen. Um erfolgreich zu sein, brauchen wir Seine Gnade. Wir werden sie gewinnen, indem wir Ihn im tiefsten Innern unseres eigenen Wesens erkennen. Und es gibt keinen erhabeneren Weg, das zu erreichen, als den, die göttliche Sri Guru Gita und die tiefgründige Weisheit, die durch den Satguru selbst mitgeteilt wird, zu lesen. Nimm sie auf, bewahre sie und wende sie dann mit Entschlossenheit und in tiefer Ehrfurcht an. Du wirst den höchsten Preis gewinnen: Alles. Liebe. Gott.
Guru Nanak
Guru Nanak, the founder of Sikhism, was born in the 15th century during a period of political and religious turmoil in India. Tension between Hindus and Muslims had escalated, leading to greater polarization of the two religions. He preached that God was One, He was the Truth, and He was nirankari or formless. He advocated a casteless society, based on brotherhood and equality. Nanak travelled far and wide, showing mankind the path to salvation. Guru Nanak was a unique messiah, who advocated a gentle, peaceful path to God-realization. This book gives us an insight into the fascinating life of Guru Nanak.
