The mentor works with a planning, a vision, gives proper consideration to the impact of the actions on others and implements the learnings gathered from the past experiences. Whatever goes to the mentor receives his or her distinction and touch. If the noble and sublime thoughts are touched by him or her it gets concrete form and manifests properly. The various ways through which we are encouraged, motivated by the mentor always guide us and help us in dealing with the difficult situations with right approach and positive attitude.
The strong thought waves and resolute will he or she evokes continue to surround us always whether or not the mentor is visibly guiding. If we live up to the vision set by the mentor we can feel his presence and their proximity. The mentor lives in the ideals. We can realize their immortality when we start believing and living his ideas.
The God is not far from us, we just need to look to the godly things around us. In the same way our mentor never bereaves or abaondons us we just need to live up to the ideals set by him. The mentor always lives in their ideals and lives forever.
We often complain about the short livedness. One can say that Thomas Elva Edison died young; had he lived more he would surely have done more good to the mankind with his kind of inventions. Saint Vivekananda, the greatest spiritual master, mentor of the centuries went to heavenly abode at the young age of 39. We can say that he would have touched, illuminated more souls with his spirituality had he lived more. But the mentor does not believe in longetivity, he or she believes in quality, perfection accomplishment of vision, setting up of standards and ideals. As long as we too believe in these things we shall always feel the connection with our mentor immortal.
