dear gurus:

 

thank you;

 

for setting an example i could see today, not only read about in

books.

 

for talking to me and always being respectful, you showed me how to

appreciate the god within.

 

for showing me the awesome Feminine power that pervades all.

 

for your kindness and honesty.

 

for being gurus that are accessible and real.

 

for making "namaste" real ... seeing the god in you, i see the god

in myself, the god that is all-pervading.

 

by removing all negative judgment.

 

by granting me the boon of peace and happiness.

 

by providing a great sadhana.

 

by having such fine devotees.

 

maa -- for opening the space in my heart that loves all and is also

vastly spiritual. for sending some chocolates and inviting me into

her world, the world i always wanted.

 

swamiji ... for being vastly spiritual and informed, and down to

earth, respectfully relating to the day to day realities of our

human life, respecting the limitations we experience, for being a

teacher, supporter of all that is positive and good, being a real

guru and guide.

 

pranams, pranams, pranams, thank you.

1) For walking with God every day and listening to Her direction

within on your appointed path. Your faithfulness and consistency

provide infinite encouragement for me to walk mine.

 

2) For your work in making the knowledge of Devi accessible to me,

and sending your devotees out to teach others and share the love they

have found at your feet.

 

3) For being filled with Devi jyoti that radiates to all the world

from your beautiful hearts.

Namaste All,

Here is one of Basavanna's vachana (Dialogue of Lord Basava) which

to me symbolizes the relationship between oneself and the Guru. I bow down to

all my Gurus.

=========================

 

You are my mother,

You are my dearest friend

You are my Wisdom

You are everthing for me , Oh my Guru my loving Guru.

You are always in my heart

No matter where I go.

You are always there to guide me though each step along my way.

and then there is the Bava Saagara, published in the Shiva Puja and

Advanced Yajna (by none other than Swami Satyananda Saraswati, of

course). For those of you who have never read it, it is beautiful,

one of my favorites, filled with devotion, hope and promise.

 

Chris

 

bava saagara

 

bava saagara taarana kaarana he

ravi nandana bandhana khandana he

sharanaagata kinkara bhiitamane

guru deva dayaa kara diinajane

 

You show the way of crossing over the ocean of existence, cutting

asunder the bondage of the bliss of the Light of Wisdom. Granting

refuge for the purity of mind, O divine Guru, be compassionate and

illuminate the darkness.

 

Hridi kandara taamasa bhaaskara he

tuumi vishnu prajaapati shankara he

parabrahma paraat para veda bhane

guru deva dayaa kara diinajane

 

In the center of the heart, your light destroys darkness. You are

Vishnu, Prajaapati, Brahma, and Shiva Shankara. You are greater than

the greatest, the highest knowledge, O divine Guru, be compassionate

and illuminate the darkness.

 

mana vaarana shaasana ankusha he

nara traana tare hari chaakshusha he

guna gaana paraayana deva gane

guru deva dayaa kara diinajane

 

You are the goad to discipline the changing mind, to take from man

all obstacles to divine sight. You always extoll the divine qualities

of the shining ones. O divine Guru, be compassionate and illuminate

the darkness.

 

kuloa kundalinii ghuma bhanjaka he

hridi granthi vidaarana kaaraka he

mama maanasa chanchala ratradine

guru deva dayaa kara diinajane

 

You awaken the sleeping kundalinii energy, and cut the knots which

entangle the heart. Turn the night of confusion into the day of

knowledge. O divine Guru, be compassionate and illuminate the

darkness.

 

ripusudhana mangala naayaka he

shukha shaanti varaabhaya daayaka he

trayataapa hare tava naama gune

guru deva dayaa kara diinajane

 

Your gracious glance purifies all limitations, you are the giver of

blessings of comfort and peace. For those who recite your name you

remove the three kinds of afflictions. O divine Guru, be

compassionate and illuminate the darkness.

 

abhimaana prabhaava vimarddaka he

gati hiina jane tuumi rakshaka he

cita shankita banchita bhakti dhane

guru deva dayaa kara diinajane

 

You crush the rise of possessiveness, and protect us from that which

would slay the soul. You give pure devotion to free Consciousness

from the bondage of the forces of doubt. O divine Guru, be

compassionate and illuminate the darkness.

 

tava naama sadaa shubha saadaka he

pati taadhama maanava paavaka he

mahimaa tava gochara shuddha mane

guru deva dayaa kara diinajane

 

Therefore the aspirants to divinity always recite your pure name, as

you are like the Lord offering purity to men. Your greatness is

perceivable only by minds that are pure. O divine Guru, be

compassionate and illuminate the darkness.

 

jaya sadguru iishvara praapaka he

bhava roga vikaara vinaashaka he

mana jena rahe tava shrii charane

guru deva dayaa kara diinajane

 

Victory to the true guru, who destroys the diseases of worldly

bondage, leading humans to Supreme Divinity. So that our mind can

remain at your respected lotus feet, O divine Guru, be compassionate

and illuminate the darkness.

going inside.

comes from it.

 

I love you Maa and Swamiji.
