Didn't get the same kind of "hit" from him as the others- no offense to him. I'd answer your question with another, And yours is a great question-- why has yellow been my favorite color since I was ten? why not purple, or green or red or brown or blue or grey? Don't know- I just like the vibe of yellow best- always have.
Regarding spiritual teachers, I recently went to Mother Meera's website and enjoyed every bit of it, and there is no doubt in my mind she is an avatar, the Divine personified. Loved the Q&A there too. Earlier in my life I read the book on Jesus's life by Kahlil Gibran (don't recall the name anymore) and really loved that book. Nowadays I bought my Buddha t-shirts at Target- liked them so much I have four of the exact same t-shirt now, in case the other three wear out. So I have enjoyed those that commune most closely with the Divine for a long time. Why Guru Dev specifically? In my case He is the One who I am comfortable with on a cellular level, constantly. Truly one of the family! Why? I don't know-- maybe it has to do with the combination of prayer to him and doing TM??:-)
