[Kundalini Yoga] The role of a guru

 

Sat nam friends,

I've been pondering a question lately that I'd like some help with, especially from the wise elders of this community. In this wonderful path of Kundalini Yoga (that I've been practicing and teaching since 1999), what is the role of a guru? My understanding is that Yogi Bhajan talked about himself only as a teacher (and even seemed to talk about Sant Hazara Singh as a teacher, not a guru). What is the difference, because I tend to think Yogi Bhajan was of that level of understanding that he could be a guru? Do we eschew gurus on this path, at least in human form? Do we instead consider our guru to be the 10 Sikh Gurus (Guru Ram Das, etc.)? The Siri Guru Granth Sahib?

On a related note, who was Sant Hazara Singh's Guru? Because I think I met him yesterday!

All the best,
Brian
