Direct association with a God-realized man of wisdom may be through personal contact or deep meditation. The important point is to attune your consciousness with his. When you are in tune with a great soul who loves God, that attunement gradually changes your life in a most wonderful way. Your will does not become enslaved; it becomes expanded. This is the difference between attunement to an ego-centred person and being in tune with a true guru. The magnetism of a God-realized soul will put you in tune with the magnetism of God.
~ Sri Sri Paramahansa Yoganandaji, “Journey to Self-Realization”
