He is also the appointed guardian of the Mask of Dark Earth. He channles his power through his walking stick and Moon Stone.

After training Murray in the art of the Dream Time, the Guru sends him on a world-wide walkabout. After Murray accomplishes his goals in Venice, he returns to the Outback with Sly and Murray to gain permission to end his training. However, in his absence, the Guru has been abducted by local miners, and his powers have vanished because of the intrusion. Seeking the aid of Murray and co., the Guru regains his trusty gear and powers after his new friends recover the stick and Stone and drive the miners from Ayers Rock.
