If we follow a fraud Guru by error, what will be our fate?

Swami replied:- The Veda means knowledge. When the knowledge is given to you to identify the real human form of the Lord and if you fail in identifying the real human incarnation and instead follow a fraud Guru, you are lost. In the chemistry laboratory when there is an error in doing the analysis according to the given procedure and if you identify the given chemical wrongly, you fail in the examination. But there is another chance to attend the examination for the failed candidates where you must revise the procedure and pass in the examination. You must identify the Sadguru before your life ends. Otherwise, you cannot be sure of human rebirth (Jantunaam Nara Janma Durlabhamidam—Shankara).
