Bhunam rogamaharat, bahunamista marpayat

Bahunam Tranamakarot, bahunam margamadisat

 

Bahuni vastunyasrjat, bahun devanakiratayat

Bahu desanekadayat, bahvissiddhi radarsayat

 

Bahudha prathito bhutva, bahvirakrsya ca prajah

Gururbhutva tasu dharmyam, parivartanamatanot

 

Athaivam vardhamanayam, guruttamsa yasastatow

Kramasah sri ganapati, saccidananda samyutah

Tasya namaksaaravalya, mantra mudra makalpayat

 

Tato nunno ganesena, tatha sisyaissvakairapi

Camundi girijasya, pascimopatyaka bhuvi

Purvam rsiganairjuste, sviyasrama padam vyadhat

 

Tatassrisaila sikharam, gatva devi pracoditah

Tarta patala gangayam, srinrisimha sarasvateh

Antardhana mahaghatte, data tejobharanvite

Snanam kurvati yogindre, kopyagatya yatisvarah

Turiyamasramam datva, kasaya vasanaissaha

Tasya pasyata evagre, spadyantarhito bhavat.

 

He cured many sick people. He fulfilled the desires of many others. He offered

his protection to many devotees. He taught many to live an upright life.

He materialized many things from nowhere. He praised the glory of many gods. He

was here, there and everywhere all at the same time. He displayed many wonderful

powers.

He became widely known in many ways, attracted many people, became their Guru,

and taught them to reform themselves and live a chaste life.

Thus the fame of Gurudeva spread far and wide. Gradually, Sri Ganapathi Deva

achieved the additional attribute of Satchidananda and accorded Mantratva(the

quality of a divine mantra) to his name.

Later, at the request of his disciples and prompted by Lord Ganapathi, Gurudeva

established his Ashram(shrine) on the western side of the Chamundi Hill, where

ancient Rishis lived.

After some time, Sri Gurudeva, prompted by Goddess Devi, went to Srisailam and,

as he was taking his bath in the bathing ghat where Sri Narasimha Saraswathi who

was endowed with the power of Sri Datta, disappeared into oblivion, an unknown

Yati appeared, gave the sanyasa Ashram(vow of renunciation) to Gurudeva, also

gave him the saffron robes and vanished as mysteriously as he appeared.

 

Sri Guru Datta.
