How can we identify a real Guru?

Being a Guru is not a ordinary job but a very high level qualification in the world. Without acceptance of Guru an human form of life is just like an animal who acts freely whatever wish. But after acceptance of Guru, human must regulate their life style the way Guru wants.

But Most of the times people just make their Guru for a fashion and just to show off we also have so called Guru.

A Guru should have some basic qualifications and by his behavior he should direct their disciples.

Here are few qualities as per Srila Rupa Goswami (one of sixth Goswami from Vrinadavan),  we must see in any Guru before we accept them as a Guru.

Control on Speech: A Guru must control on his speech, or whatever he speak that should be based on scriptures not just his own philosophy.

Control on Mind:  As Lord Krishna has already stated in Bhagwad Gita about mind (its best friend and worst enemy). A person who is failed to control his agitated mind is unable to be a Guru.

Control on Anger: A person who has not control his anger is always stay in danger zone. Anger is gate of hell. So, one should tolerate his anger and be calm to be a Guru.

Control on Tongue: A tongue is always looks for its taste and it does not care what is good and what is bad for our health? A person who has no control over his tongue can never become a Guru.

Control on Belly and Genitals: A person who eat so much can never be healthy and advanced in spirituality. A person who has no control over the urges of the genitals can never become a Guru.

Hope this is the clear vision to make a Guru and whenever we see these basic points in any person and finally he is completely surrendered himself in the lotus feet of the Lord is a Guru.

वाचो वेगं मनसः क्रोधवेगं जिह्वावेगमुदरोपस्थवेगम् ।
एतान्वेगान्यो विषहेत धीरः सर्वामपीमां पृथिवीं स शिष्यात् ॥ १ ॥

A sober person who can tolerate the urge to speak, the mind’s demands, the actions of anger and the urges of the tongue, belly and genitals is qualified to make disciples all over the world.
