Maanasa Mandira Vaasini -- English word-to-word translation

[Guest guest]

Jai Guru Datta!

With a humble thought that this will benefit many and as a service towards the

lotus feet of HH Sri Swamiji, I tried my best to eke out the LITERAL and TRUE

TEXT translation of this bhajan.

There might be mistakes, wrong interpretations and errors. I seek blessings of

elders and Pandits to bless me with more knowledge. Please correct or edit if

there are any mistakes.

 

Si Guru Datta!
