   Swami Sivananda

  Ref :  The present day student unions backed by Communists  and  Congress,  the  twin  cursed  political  parties  of  this  Holy  Nation, it  is  necessary  to  eliminate  these  dirty  parties  because  of  their  Anti National  activities  such  as  defaming  the  Upanishadic Culture  and  Sanatana  Dharma......

Chapter 6 - PRACTICE OF GURU-BHAKTI  : 6-48 to 57.

6. Enthronement of Guru : 48 to 57.

48. I bow down to the great Guru, the First and Perfect Being, the Revealer of the sacred Vedas, who like a bee extracts the essence of the Vedas, comprising Jnana, Vijnana, and gives it to his devotees.

49. The true disciple should enthrone in the recesses of his heart the Lotus-Feet of his revered Guru.

50. The first and foremost duty of a disciple when he meets his Guru is to salute him with all humility.

51. In the Bhagavata, the story is told of an Avadhutha who had twenty-four Upagurus, viz., the five elements, the Sun, the Moon, the sea, animals, etc., which though insignificant, taught him each in its own way the Supreme Knowledge.

52. He is the best of disciples, who, with one-pointed mind, without thinking of aught else, worships his Guru alone.

53. When Sattva increases in an aspirant, he becomes righteous and develops true devotion to his Guru.

54. The Guru is but the embodiment of equal vision and therefore looks upon all his disciples alike.

55. Krishna says to Uddhava: “I am Vasishtha among Priests; and Brihaspati among Preceptors; I am Narayana among Sages and Sanatkumara among celibates.”

56. When disciple is serving under his Guru, he should never make others serve him. This is a great obstacle for him to grow in spirituality.

57. Bring glory to your Guru by making them Guru Bhais. This is the royal way to develop Guru-Bhakti.

Next : 7. Humility Above Erudition - 58 to 62.
