Guest guest Posted October 8, 2002 Report Share Posted October 8, 2002 Hello, A thought came to mind to translate shlokas from Guru Geeta and send them to fellow members. I hope it is useful for the members. Soota Oowatch, Kailas shikare ramye, bhaktisandhan nayakum Pranamya Parwati, bhaktya shankarum paryapruchyat II1II Soota says, One day while sitting on the beautiful Kailash Mountain Parwati, with all the devotion, asked a question to the leader of devotion, the Shankara. Shri Devi Oowatch, Om namo dev devesh, paratpar jagadguru Sadashiv mahadev, gurudixam pradehimay II2II Parwati says, Oh! The God of Gods and the Guru of the universe, Sadashiv mahadev, please accept me as your student. Kain margain bho swamin, dehi bruhm mayo bhawate Twam krupakarume swamin, namami churanow taw II3II Oh! Lord, could you please tell me the way by which this body will become one with the creator. I bow on to your feet. Ishwara Oowatch, Mama roopasi devitwam, twa prityarthum vadamite Lokopakaraka prashno, na kenapi krutaha pura II4II You are so beautiful and you are my beloved so I am telling you, such a useful question was not asked by anyone before. Durlabhum trishu lokeshu, tachunushwa vadamite Gurumvina bruhmananyat, satyum satyum varanane II5II The knowledge which is hard to find in any of the three parts of the universe, I am going to tell you. Without guru becoming one with brahma is not possible. This is the truth I am telling you. Ved shatra puranadi itihas adi kanich muntr yentradi vidhyach, Smruti ruchat nadikum Shaiv shaktya gamdani, anyani vividhani ch Apa braunsh karaneeha jeevanam, bhrant chetasam II6II All the knowledge in vedas, puranas, histories, mantras, and yentras drive the people, who are already confused, in to more cofusion. Yagnuo vratum tupo danum, japastirtum tathaiwacha Gurutatwam avignay, mudhaste charate janha II7II People, absorbed in ygnya, tapa, dana and japa without understanding the principle of Guru, are wandering in ignorance. Guru budhayatmano nanyat, satyum satyum na saunshaya Tull labharthum prayatnustu, kartavyabhi manshibhihi II8II All the intelligent people who understand the importance of guru should make it their duty to reap the benefit of this knowledge with out slightest doubt. Goodha vidhya jagnmaya, dehech agnyan sumbhawaha Udayaha swa prakashane, guru shabhdane kathayate II9II Oh! The goddess of this earth, the secrete knowledge that is unknown to this body becomes very clear by the light that is inherent in the word 'Guru'. Survepap vishudhatma, shri guruho pad sevanath Dehi brahmmaya bhavadasmat tat kruparthum vadamite II10II All the sins will be washed away by serving guru. I will now tell you how this body becomes one with brahma. Shoshunum pap punkasya, deepanum gnyan tejasam Gurupadodakum samyak, saunsaranaw tarakum II11II The faith in guru will dry out the wet clay of sins and will light up the lamp of knowledge and it will help to cross the ocean of life. Agnyan moolhuranum, janma karma nivaranum Gnyan viaragya sidhartrum, guru padodakum pibeth II12II Being humble in the presence of guru (i.e. by accepting the water that has touched guru's feet) will drive away ignorance, takes away rebirth, gives knowledge, and makes you detached. Guru padodakum peethwa, guru ruchist bhojanum Guru murthe sada dhyanum, guru mantrum sada japeth II13II Kashikshetrum tannivasum, janhavi churnodakum Guru vishvashwaraha sakshat, tarakum brahm nichitum II14II By accepting the water from guru's feet, eating from the guru's left over dish, always remembering guru's image, and by doing jap of mantra given by guru will make guru's place a very secret like kashi. The water from guru's feet will be very special like water from Ganges. It is definite that guru, the vishweshwar of kashi, is the brhma himself. Regards, Sadashiv Dharwarkar.
