Guest guest Posted September 1, 2001 Report Share Posted September 1, 2001 Well pleased with he humble request of the other saints, Soota, the saint of lore, spake thus: Verse 2 Kailaasa shikhare ramye bhaktaanugraha tatpaaram / Pranamya Paarvatee bhaktya Shamkaram paripruchchati // "Oh great saints! On the beautiful peak of Kailas bowing down in all devotion before Shamkar, the ever gracious to His devotees, Parvati humbly asks Him thus: It might be questioned why all this without coming straight to the Guru Geeta. The great saint Soota, according to Swamiji, is meditating upon the tradition of Guru for this great spell of Guru Geeta beforehand, thereby praying to the Guru. By speaking of the wonderful origin of the Guru Geeta, it is also indicated how wonderful it is itself. As Lord Hayagreeva was initiated by the Supreme Goddess into Sree Vidya, so also Parvati, the Mother Goddess, was initiated by Lord Shamkar into the way of serving the Guru. N.B.: Swamiji recited the sloka with the substitu- tion of 'Dattaa Anugraha Tatparam' for 'Bhaktaa Anugraha Tatparam' meaning that Lord Shiva intended to grace His devotees in the form of Dattaatreya . . .
