Yesterday in ISKCON, LA there was a program celebrating the grand success of LA Rath Yatra. During that program, there was a wonderful Odissi dance for the song :

 

guru brahma guru vishnu guru sAkshAt majeshwara ...

 

As per this song the guru is called parabrahman! I was wondering how this related to the gaudiya vaishnava school of thought. I thought it was very advaitic in content. Is this sign of growing tolerance towards advaitam ? Any thoughts ?

<center>Great Jnani devotee Uddhava revealed in Srimad Bhagavatam:

 

naivapanyanty apachitim kavaya tavesa

barhmayasapi krtamrddam udah smarantah

yo' antarbahis tanubhritam asubham vidhunvan

na acarya caitaya vapusa svagatim vyanakti

 

The devoted Uddhava said to Lord Krishna :

 

<font color="red">"O Lord, the surrendered devotees,

whose joys increase as they THINK of THY favours,

can NEVER- not even in the lifetime of Brahma

(Cosmic creator)- repay their DEBT of gratitude to Thee,

Who revealest Thy naure, by removing the evil

(hankering for sense-pleasures) of ALL beings

</font><font color="blue">in a DOUBLE form - outside, as the TEACHER,

and inside as the Indwelling Ruler."</font>
