Sloka:
Durlabham trisu lokesu tacchrnu pravada myaham Gurum brahma vina nanyat satyam satyam varanane
Siva says to Parvati to hear Him say the secret that no one in the three worlds knows.
Guru is verily Parabrahman and there is nothing else besides this. This is an absolute truth. Here, the three worlds also indicate Brahma loka, Vaikuntha and Kailasa.
Let’s talk about the story of Matsya Narayana, who is Parabrahman, and a Guru to the Gurus. Eons ago, there used to be a king called Vaivasvata who ruled the earth. During his reign, there was a great deluge.
Once, when the king was offering his prayers by the river, Sri Hari appeared in the form of a little fish and slipped into the water that the king had cupped in his hands. Let’s talk about the ways of the divine. The fish implored the king to save its life. The king kept the fish in his sacred water pot.
Soon, the little fish grew too large for the pot, so the king moved the fish to a little pond. The fish quickly outgrew the pond and asked the king to take it to another place. The king moved the fish to a big lake. The fish soon grew too big for the lake as well.
Vaivasvata then released the fish in to the ocean. He realized that the fish was none other than Sri Hari and prayed to the Lord. Vaivasvata was also called Satyavrata (for his adherence to truth).
At the time of the deluge, Vaivasvata welcomed the Lord in the form of a Guru and diligently followed his commands. By the grace of Matsya Narayana (Lord Sri Hari in the form of a Sankhya Yoga and the Puranas as blessings.
He realized the absolute truth that Guru is Parabrahman and there is nothing else. He beautifully praised the Lord who appeared to him as a Guru.
