Guest guest Posted April 25, 2002 Report Share Posted April 25, 2002 While studying the Dattapeetham publication: Sri Guru Gita, which contains Sri Guru Ashtakam(SGA) i discoverd that one can very good improve ones relationship with Sri Swamiji by studying this great publication daily..wanted to share that with you along with these links: Sri Adi Sankara, Some events, and an artist's impression: http://www.kamakoti.org/miscl/adi.html Slightly different translations on SGA [1]: http://theosophy.org/tlodocs/devoguru.htm Slightly different translations on SGA [2]: http://sanskrit.gde.to/all_txt/gurvashtakam.txt Sri Adi Shankara, (in part two there is some discussion on SGA): http://www.madhuramurali.org/mm/year2001/jun2001/ji_adisankara1.html Further i want to quote something about our divine mother from Sri Guru Gita: Verse 5Kena maargena bhoh Swaamin dehee brahmamayo bhavet / Kuru menugraham Deva namaami charanau tava //.......Here even the Goddess speaks as if She also has fallen prey to the illusion of the body. But it is not true. She only speaks like that with a view to elicit the plain answer from the Lord Ishwar. She intends that all of us should be blessed with that awakening for She is our Mother. .............. Tanx for your time....SGD, Win. ps.[1] Some of you got some water info from me: tanx Carolin, didnt know destilled or botteld water could be bad for you.
