Sloka:
Yasya jnanadidam viswam adrsyam bheda bhedatah | Satswarupavasesam ca tasmai sri gurave namah ||
Obeisance to Sadguru, the knowledge of whom destroys the duality of the mind and dissolves the universe that then only remains in the form of Sattva (purity, divinity). The state beyond non-duality is also the state beyond birth and death. This is the state of the Absolute which the Guru graciously grants.
That is also what you should pray to the Guru for. That state of non-duality is the state beyond birth and death. That is the state of the Absolute. That is what the Guru grants too.
Sloka:
Yayeva karyarupena karanenapi bhati ca | Karya karana nirmuktah tasmai sri gurave namah ||
The Guru appears in the form of action or in the form of Universe. He also appears in the form of the cause of that action or in the form of illusion. But in reality, he is beyond the cause and effect. Obeisance to such a Sadguru.
Sloka:
Jnana sakti swarupaya kamitartha pradayine | Bhukti mukti pradatreca tasmai sri gurave namah ||
Guru is the embodiment of knowledge and power, and who therefore fulfills all our desires. Obeisance to such a Saduguru who fulfills our material desires and also grants liberation.
Here, we need to understand clearly that “Bhukti” is karma. To a Guru, action, cause, inertia, consciousness, karma, liberation (“Mukti”) are all the same. Obeisance to such a Sadguru who is the one that encompasses everything.
Sloka:
Aneka janma samprapta karma koti vidahine | Jnananala prabhavena tasmai sri gurave namah ||
Obeisance to the Sadguru whose fire of knowledge destroys the karma that his disciples have been accumulating over several births.
Sloka:
Na guroradhikam tattva na guroradhikam tapah | Na guroradhikam jnanan tasmai sri gurave namah ||
There is no concept superior to Guru, no penance superior to the Guru and no knowledge superior to the Guru. Obeisance to such a Sadguru.
Sloka:
Mannathassri jagannatho madgurustri jagadguruh | Mamata sarva bhutatma tasmai sri gurave namah ||
My Lord is the Lord of all three worlds. My Guru is the Guru to all the three worlds. My soul is the soul of all beings. Obeisance to Sadguru who is in me. One should be aware that the Guru is capable of stirring such thoughts.
Sloka:
Gururadiranadisca guruh parama daivatam | Gurossamanah kovasti tasmai sri gurave namah ||
Guru is the beginning and the source of everything, he is the primordial one, he is the root of all, he is the creation. He has no beginning. Guru is the Paradevata (image of God). Who is a match to Guru? Obeisance to such a Guru.
Sloka:
Eka eva paro bandhuh visame samupasthite | Nissprahah karuna sindhuh tasmai sri gurave namah ||
Guru alone is the true relative in adverse circumstances because He is free from desires. He has no desire to take anything from you. You may think He does, but He needs nothing. But, the Guru is an ocean of compassion.
It doesn’t matter if you don’t offer him anything, he doesn’t even expect anything. But, because he is an ocean of compassion, he is a true relative. Obeisance to such a Guru.
