A Teacher Instructs You But A " Guru " Constructs You -Contributed by Sri Rashmi Ranjan -rashmi.ranjan.dance@gmail.com August 2015 *File Picture My Guru Smt Aruna Mohanty is one such live instance. She is a second mother to me . She is a guru who makes you responsible for your growth, who sends you on the road to freedom and yet acts a pointer to the way. She shows you the way to posterity and touches your spirit. Any teacher might punish you with a stick for your mistakes but she is a guru who punishes you with compassion . She leads us by examples . The relationship is life long and deep . "Guru" is such a divine gift of God to us because one can always find a teacher but only lucky ones can find a "Guru" . A guru to a shisya is like a mother to a child . The word "Guru" truly means the one who dispels darkness and gives us the light of knowledge. Knowledge of who we are, how to relate with the world and achieve true success. Most importantly, how to transcend the world and reach the abode of infinite Bliss which is the hallmark of excellence. There is much importance and requirement of a Guru in every walk of our life. Yesterday only while teaching us , Baby apa ( Aruna Mohanty ) told us how she wanted to see us as "intelligent dancers" in the international arena, the spark in her eyes was just enough to communicate all the things in her heart... I am so lucky being able to get such a Guru whose presence in my life is a blessing to me . She has got magic that each time she teaches she takes us into a complete another world, we get soo involved that we don't want to come out of that magical world created by her . She believes Odissi being an art form is an imitation of the life we see around us . She would teach us the same way taking real life examples, instances from our day to day works, insisting us to say the dialouges and dance.. its just sooo much fun and a loot of things to learn. She has got a special skill to teach every age of people the way they can understand, I sometimes wonder will I ever be able to give atlst 5 % of her effort, love, care,, dedication to my students!!
