Chapter - 2 – Sri Guru Gita – 11 – 20
Devi Parvathi speaks “Oh! Devadevesha, Oh! Parathpara,
Oh! Jagathguro, Oh! Pranavaswaroopa, who is always surrounded and worshiped by
the Sura and Asura, I shall reverentially prostrate before you. Oh! Bhagavan,
you are worshiped by the Bhrama, Vishnu, Mahendra, and deities, Oh! Bhagavan,
who do you worship? Who is most venerable other than you? Oh! Prabho, I am so confused
watching your practices and disciplines, I do not know the reason for it, hence
kindly shower your mercy upon me, and describe the reason for the same. Oh!
Bhagavan, Oh! Sarvadharmajja/knower of all the Dharma, Oh! Vrathanayaka who
symbolizes austerities and Tapasya, Oh! Shambho, kindly describe the Gurumahathmya/significance
of preceptor, which is highly propitious. Oh! Swamin, how did the Jeeva achieve
the Bhrama Thaththvam/the knowledge of Athman/Paramathma /indestructible
Purusha, and the destructible Prakrithi, and how did achieve union with the
Bhrmam? Kindly impart the supreme knowledge of Bhramam, I shall repeatedly
prostrate before your lotus feet.” Thus, Goddess Parvathi gracefully appealed
to Lord Mahadeva, who was extremely happy listening to Devi Parvathi and began
to speak.
Lord Mahadeva speaks “Oh! Devi, the
knowledge of Bhramaththvam is highly confidential and it has been undisclosed
always, it was not shared or taught to anyone before, I am pleased with your devotion,
therefore I shall describe the splendor of Guru Mahathmya to you. Oh! Devi, you
are an inseparable part of mine, hence I shall share the supreme knowledge with
you. You have asked a brilliant question that provides welfare to the
worlds/Lokoparaka, that was not asked previously by none. Oh! Devi, I shall
remind you, the Mahathma/noble souls who have firm faith and devotion towards
the deities, and preceptor would understand the highly confidential Bhrama
Thaththva and Guru Mahathmya. Oh! Devi, Guru is Shiva/auspicious, the noble and
auspicious souls are considered as a preceptor. Therefore, Guru is not different
from Lord Shiva, Guru is Shiva, the person who has disbelief about the very
idea would become a grave sinner, who had approached the wife of Gurupathni/wife
of the preceptor to satiate bodily pleasure.”
