Worshipping Gurudev
Sandhyā is the connecting point, joining all aspects of existence. The connection to the divine and to all teachers is fundamental. First is the mother, then the father, then the teacher, and then the guru. All are forms of the guru, from those who teach basic skills to the spiritual master. This knowledge is endless. Gaṇeśa is revered as the highest, illustrating that true wisdom recognizes the divine in one's immediate reality. The root of meditation is the guru's form, the root of worship is the guru's feet, the root of mantra is the guru's word, and the root of liberation is the guru's grace. Connection to the guru is essential, yet one can be carried away like a leaf in the wind. Realization comes from within, beyond mere study.
"Guru Brahmā, Guru Viṣṇu, Guru Devo Maheśvara. Guru Sākṣāt Para Brahma, Tasmai Śrī Gurave Namaḥ."
"Dhyāna mūlaṁ guru mūrtiḥ, pūjā mūlaṁ guru pādaṁ, mantra mūlaṁ guru vākyaṁ, mokṣa mūlaṁ gurur kṛpā."
