Talk:Jagadguru

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

The following sentence in the article: "According to the Indian scriptures, the Jagadguru is a title given so that people can abide by the teachings of a Guru without any fear and in full confidence" is utterly interesting. It would be good to give examples of sacred Indian scriptures which develop on this explanation of the word Jagadguru. Also, sorry if the following question might appear polemic but it is not intended to be defamatory: I see that there are many individuals today who pretend to be the present Jagadguru. As far as I know, there can be only one Jagadguru at a given time. So, how to decide who is the real Jagadguru today ? I think it is likely that the real Jagadguru today is not one among those who publicly and outwardly pretend to be. TwoHorned 20:57, 2 August 2006 (UTC)
