It's human to imitate, but we are also uniquely individual. If it helps you, then what better role model than the Gurus? Humility is not something you can 'act'. Humility happens inside of you when you experience the Infinity inside of yourself. Our Gurus are with us now. They weren't just in the past. Their qualities are inside of us already. Don't 'act' like the Guru, and don't 'act' humble, just act in yourself in each moment to the best of your consciousness.

Guruka Singh examines this question, and says that Amrit is not a set of rules and restrictions that you have to follow after taking Amrit, but don't have to follow before you take Amrit.

Guruka Singh answers this question by saying "don't worry about it." Don't worry if you are spiritually progressing. There is no measurement for it. You just need to keep following your path to spirituality with sincerity and you will go where you need to go. This question also comes from the thought that some people are spiritual and some are not, which is incorrect. We are all spiritual beings.
