Soota uvacha:
Verse: Kailasa …
Upon hearing the request of the sages, Sage Suta felt happy that he now has an opportunity to share the knowledge of Guru Gita with sages who have earned the eligibility to hear it. He spoke thus:
“O Sages, one day upon the beautiful peak of Mount Kailas, Parvati offered reverential obeisance and posed a question to her husband, with the intention of helping devotees.”
We may wonder why Sage Suta is engaging in this preamble, instead of directly broaching the subject matter. Prior to initiating the sages into the Guru Maha Mantra, he is first contemplating on the lineage of Guru. In this manner Guru is meditated upon.
By mentioning the prominence of the location where this highest of all mantras was delivered, the immense power of the mantra is indicated. Earlier, Parvati had taught Hayagreeva the procedure for Sri Vidya. Similarly now, Lord Siva is teaching Parvati the Guru principle.
Parvatyuvacha –
Verse: Namaste …
Mother of the Universe Parvati prayed, “O God of gods, Lord, the higher than the highest, the Universal Master, Supreme Siva, I offer my prostrations. Please initiate me into the worship of Guru. I surrender my mind to you with complete devotion.”
Verse: Bhagavan …
“O Lord, you are knowledgeable in all aspects of Dharma. You grant happiness to all, O Master.
Therefore, you are addressed as Sambhu. Please teach me the greatest amongst all austerities.
Out of immeasurable compassion, please teach me the Guru principle,” requested Mother Goddess. Mother is asking for that which excels everything else in greatness and power.
She is suggesting that she is seeking that over which nothing higher exists. The question may arise whether energies are of different levels.
The channels through which energy travels may have varying capacities, but are there greater and lesser energies? Let us wait for the Lord’s teaching.
