take good note of this: Just as when one is sick then a
doctor's advice is necessary, and as we are all sick with
the poison of lust, the guru's instructions are not merely
necessary, they are absolutely essential. A little poison
taken without the advice of a physician may cause the
patient to die; in the same way, trying out these methods
without adequate preparation in the other yanas and the
personal teaching direct from one's guru may cause one
to die spiritually—it may cause one directly to know the
meaning of the word "hell." But the poison administered
by the wise doctor may cure our illness, and it is the
same with the practices taught to us by our guru, who
thus gives us the medicine to cure our sickness of lust.

cures us.
