Such a coincidence that youhave met so many Dattas. You have forgotten to mention the trainer Datta and Dr. Datta from TISS. I think they follow you in the form of Lord Dattatreya.

No doubt that I have seen you as a learner and also a Guru to many. Keep writing , Sir.

I am surprised by the fact that he had 24 gurus because since childhood I have heard and read about each person having only one guru..
But this goes along way in saying that what is important in not the person (the Guru) but the learnings and the one in continuous search of learning will find a Guru…
as they say.. when the student is ready.. the teacher appears..

One who wants to learn can learn from anyone.. anything.. he never had to wait for the “right” Guru to appear…

But what takes me in completely is the ability and conscious presence to stay in the learning mode ! And that is not easy ! One only wihses that the world has more of this tribe !

I could not lay my hands on what he learnt from each Guru, but I have read it somewhere and will send it to you when I access it.

And thanks a ton for pointing out the problem with the link, I have sorted it out since then.

Thanks,
Vivek

But what was very interesting was to read about the entities that Lord Dattatreya considered as Gurus. Clearly indicates that we need to learn from our environment and society in which we exist. So many times, one finds that many rituals which are actually very thoughtfully designed for educating people, fall pray to intimidating attitudes regarding religion etc, from people who dont have time to explain the stuff.

( There is a problem with the links for Bhagwat purana and Avadhut. Should say en.wikipedia.org in place of http://www.blogger.com)..

About Retirement. Nothing really changes. Except your office. And you bring tea for someone instead of the other way around. And yes. You get a new boss. Someone who is not yet in school….:-)

Best wishes.
