Ramakrishna Paramahamsa Teachings
Gospel of Sri Ramakrishna

Anyone and everyone cannot be a guru. A huge timber floats on the water and can carry animals as well. But a piece of worthless wood sinks, if a man sits on it, and drowns him. Therefore in every age God incarnates Himself as the Guru, to teach humanity. Satchidananda alone is the Guru.

Ramakrishna Paramahamsa Teachings
Gospel of Sri Ramakrishna

You were talking of worshipping the clay image. Even if the image is made of clay, there is need for that sort of worship. God Himself has provided different forms of worship. He who is the Lord of the Universe has arranged all these forms to suit different men in different stages of knowledge.
