The Necessity for a Master , the Guru !!



Jai Gurudev !!


Supposing we go a tour to an unknown place in a different part of the world .


How nice it would be , if we could get a proper tourist guide there ?


He'd help us to move around and visit the various tourist spots in that location in an optimum time duration , explaining us the significance of each place , so that we don't miss out anything that ought to be seen .


Then , no need for us to take the tension of finding the route , enquiring  the local people for other amenities like stay , food , commuting etc...


We will feel totally relaxed and at ease with a guide, is it not ?


Just give a thought...


We , as an individual soul are on a visit to this Beautiful , Amazing Earth with a *PURPOSE* ...


The Purpose may be x or y or z  , some might be aware of it and some might not be .


And we don't know , when the end of our journey is going to be indeed !!


No doubt , our TIME of Stay here is LIMITED for sure !


Don't  you think that , we have to get the Maximum out of this  Journey to this pretty Earth ?!


Don't you think , we need to reach the Goal of serving the Purpose , for which we are born of ?!


And How Nice it'd be to have a Guide , a True Guide  to ease our Job ,


helping us to tide over the miseries in this earthly life and attain the Ultimate Joy in life !!


Will not our life be made a Heaven on Earth ?!


Ofcourse  Yes !!


The sanskrit Verse puts it rightly as ,


Papandhakara arka paramparabhyam, thapathryaheendra khageswarabhyam,
Jadyadhi samsoshana vadaveebhyam namo nama sri guru padukhabyam.



Meaning :
Salutations and Salutations to the sandals of my Guru,
Which is like a series of Suns, driving away the dark sins,
Which is like the king of eagles, driving away the cobra of miseries,
And which is like a terrific fire drying away the ocean of ignorance.







Rises the Sun
to Bring the Light in your vision !
Enters the Master 
to lift you up from where you are !!




Love & smiles...
