we continue to open our hearts and our minds to your

Love and Light. Amma, show us how to share your

inspiration and your Love for us with the World.

We dedicate our study today to Peace on this Earth,

and to healing the hearts of humankind.

 

Guru Gita Study Session 11

 

Verse 48. The Lord Said:

 

I bow down to the Guru, the ocean of mercy, with

folded hands for his grace, receiving which, the soul

is delivered from the world of diversities.

 

Verse 49.

 

The Guru’s supreme form is pure nectar to the eye of

discrimination. Just as a blind person cannot see the

sunrise, likewise, an unfortunate person cannot

perceive (the Guru’s glory).

 

Verse 50.

 

O Beloved, bow in the direction of the Guru’s feet

with devotion every day.

 

Verse 51.

 

O Noble One! The wise continually offer handfuls of

flowers with butterflies humming around them, to the

direction in which resides the sovereign God Guru, the

eternal Witness of the creation and dissolution of the

universe.

 

Verse 53.

 

What is the use of practicing all those hundreds of

rounds of deep pranayama, which are strenuous,

tedious, hard to master and likely cause numerous

diseases? Attain the spontaneous state in which the

powerful prana becomes still of its own accord through

continual service to the One Guru.
