Paragraph 66

In plain words

Sri Ramakrishna: It is Satchidananda who comes as the guru. If one takes initiation from a human guru and looks on him as a man, nothing will come of it. One must look on him as God Himself, or how will one have faith in the mantra? Once there is faith, everything is done. A Sudra, Ekalavya, made a clay image of Drona and learnt archery in the forest. He used to worship that clay Drona, taking it for Dronacharya in person, and by that alone he became a perfect archer.
