They make no assumption of authority, superiority, of being something different. They are one as you are, but one who has journeyed on the path, who has experienced it. There is only one thing that matters to the murshid. If the mureed does not study, he does not mind that. If he is given some spiritual practice and he does not do it for months, that does not matter to the murshid. It is the disciple's life that matters. Because if he does the practices for perhaps two hours and all the rest of the time he is without them, if he behaves like an angel for two hours and the rest of the time he is rude, rough, or inconsiderate, that is of very little value.
