A shishya is one who has the quality of "susrusha"; is inclined to do sushruta (which means "keenly listening" and acting, performing service selflessly) to the spiritual teacher by thought, word, deed and wealth. Deekshatattvam adds to the above that shishya is one who performs sushrusha to both Devatas and Acharyas. One who perceives with pure thoughts and constant zeal is to be known as a shishya.
