Just as a potter taps an earthen pot baked in fire to test how much it has been baked and identifies the fully baked earthen pots on this basis, similarly, Guru and God too put a seeker’s Sadhakatva (seekerhood) and Sharanagati (surrender) through a test by creating adverse circumstances ! Actually, adverse circumstances are like a Guru for an ideal seeker, which make him turn inward and teach the seeker several subtle aspects of spirituality ! After all, gold gets purified only after it is put in the fire. – Tanuja Thakur
