A Homa to Begin the New Phase
May 10, 2013Today the monks begin their new phase. With Satguru Bodhinatha traveling, Paramacharya Sadasivanathaswami fills in to burn prayers to the devas and give a short talk, telling a story while alluding to the mysterious ways in which a guru will teach and uplift a seeker.
From the Tirumantiram on the Guru:
He taught me the meekness of Spirit,
Infused in me the light of devotion,
Granted me the Grace of His Feet;
And after holy interrogation, testing me entirely,
He revealed to me the Real, the Unreal and Real-Unreal;
Certainly the Guru is the Siva Himself.
