Guest guest Posted October 12, 2005 Report Share Posted October 12, 2005 Swamiji has said that scriptures by their very nature are repetitive, by never redundant. Repetitiveness is necessary in order to get the meaning across to the student. The repetitive message in the Bhagavad Gita is "Serve God, Serve God, Serve God!" In the Chandi Path the repetitive message is "Take one asan and chant the Chandi, Take one asan and chant the Chandi, Take one asan and chant the Chandi. The question: What's the repetitive message in the Guru Gita? Nanda ventures a tentative response: na guroradhikam | na guroradhikam | na guroradhikam ||There is nothing greater than the Guru !There is nothing greater than the Guru !There is nothing greater than the Guru ! Swamiji, we would love to know your response. Thank you for your time. Swamiji's response: Your answer is appropriate! Music Unlimited - Access over 1 million songs. Try it free.
