What is Guru Bhakti?
Swayambhu: Adi Parabrahma Jaimahavibhosri: Varu Bhakti Tattva was explained in the Thursday Satsang held at Aumaujayaa: Adisahasra: Parisamsthan, Shantivilla Colony, Vampuguda on 2nd October. Some important aspects of that Satsang.
Guru bhakti means that if you live a lifestyle on this earth as a person worshiped by the Supreme, a person favored by the Supreme, a person respected by the Supreme, a person accepted by the Supreme, then surely you will be liberated after death.
One should have devotion beyond money, beyond ego, beyond life, beyond time, beyond this world, and beyond human beings. You will reach the Guru only when you have devotion beyond anyone’s reach. Only when you reach the guru will you attain self-realization and attain salvation.
There are 3 types of devotions in this universe.
1) Devotion to God
2) Jiva Bhakti
3) Guru Bhakti
Bhakti that comes and goes and bhakti that is constant in change is called Ishwara bhakti.
Bhakti without any change, which is always ignorance and ignorance, without any knowledge or consciousness, without growth or development, is called jiva bhakti.
Bhakti which is constant and eternal without change is called Guru Bhakti.
Bhakti that indulges the body is called jiva bhakti.
The devotion that entertains the mind is called Ishwara Bhakti.
Bhakti that indulges the soul is called Guru bhakti.
Bhakti iswaratattvam
Karma is the philosophy of life
Meditation is gravity
He who indulges in devotion is Ishvara
He who enjoys karma is a living being
He who indulges in meditation is a virtuous person
From the beginning to the end of the meditation, the supreme indulger is the Sadguru.
Bhakti has 4 legs viz
1) Honesty
2) Credibility
3) Truth
4) Love
The moments you spend honestly with yourself will turn into devotion.
On the day when you taste nothing but the truth, the Guru will taste it.
On the day when you taste nothing but dharma, Guru’s teachings will taste good.
On the day when you taste nothing but justice, Guru Sannidhanam will taste.
On the day when you taste nothing but righteousness, the journey with the Guru is delicious.
Guru Satsang is delicious on a day when you taste nothing but honesty.
On a day when nothing else in the world tastes good to you, Guru’s love tastes good.
Where you are not wise and conscious, it is not Bhakti.
That which gives you knowledge lights up your consciousness, awakens the spirit of love in you, and lights you up as the Supreme Being is called Bhakti.
Whoever takes Sadguru’s prasadam will not get results. Whoever eats it gets it. So they should eat the prasad given to them.
