"The world is like a rose plant. There are both flowers and thorns in the rose plant. Likewise, joys and sorrows are intertwined in the worldly life (Samsaara). We should not fill our mind with overwhelming joy thinking that the pleasures of the world are permanent. We should always think about the Supreme Reality. As man carefully separates the flowers from the rose plant without getting scratched by the thorns, so also the Guru removes the hardships and obstacles of a devotee, helping him to move towards God."
