The power of the Guru is transmitted through the Mantra to the disciple. That is why the Guru at the time of initiation takes on himself the sins of the disciple and suffers so much from physical maladies. It is extremely difficult to be a Guru for he has to take the responsibility for the disciple’s sins.
