Salutations to the Guru
Jan 20th, 2007 | By admin | Category: quotesAdi Shankara, widely considered one of the most important figures of Indian intellectual history, begins his Gurustotram (Verses to the Guru) with the following Sanskrit Sloka:
Guru Brahma Guru Vishnu Guru Devo Maheshwara
Guru Sakshath Parambrahma Tasmai Shri Gurave Namaha
Guru Sakshath Parambrahma Tasmai Shri Gurave Namaha
Listen!Meaning:
Guru is creator Brahma; Guru is preserver Vishnu; Guru is also the destroyer Siva and he is the source of the Absolute. I offer all my salutations to the Guru.
