" स पूवेॅषामपि गुरूःकालेनानवच्छेदात् "
This being, this consciousness is Guru. It is a guide to even the ones who were here before. This is because there is no break in time, as far as the consciousness is concerned. There is something similar in the Bible. God had said that He was Abraham before and had taught people who were before Him. The same thing is touched upon by Krishna when he told Arjuna that He had taught Ikshvaku and Manu. And Arjuna wondered how could Krishna have taught them? They had been born long ago and Krishna was his contemporary. So Arjuna exclaimed that he was terribly confused already. And that he should not be told those things - that Krishna was a Guru to people who were living thousands of years before Him. How could it be possible?
Then Krishna said that Arjuna did not really know Him. That He had come so many times to this world and Arjuna, too, had come many times. He had forgotten but Krishna knew it all. He had taught at that time and he was teaching then, too and would continue to teach in the future.
The Guru principle is the same because there is no break in time. It continues. Jesus is continuing throughout. It is not that he stopped somewhere. People may think that He will be coming in the future. Poorveshamapi guruhu. He was, is and will be the Master at all times because there is no break in time.
