Q: When the situations of life start to become your guru [teacher], does it matter what form the situation takes? Does it matter what situation you find yourself in?
A: You have no choice at all. Whatever happens is an expression of the guru. The situation could be painful or inspiring, but both pain and pleasure are one in this openness of seeing the situation as guru.
