So far, Śaṅkarācārya jī was explaining the basic qualities a disciple must acquire, the six treasures he should possess, and the level of motivation a person should have. Now, a śloka. The emphasis is on the Guru, Swāmījī. Namaste. Praṇām Swāmījī. Nātaloka Bandhu. You are the friend of one who has surrendered to you. You are the ocean of compassion. Save me, for I have fallen into this ocean of birth and death. Please save me with just a glance, a sidelong glance of your eyes. This suffering I see in these repeated births and deaths is something I cannot overcome by myself, so I surrender to you. The meaning of this is that even after you have acquired all the qualifications, the only way to liberation is through a sad-guru. And total surrender to the Sad-Guru is absolutely essential. As another bhajan says, there is no false humility, there is no false bhakti. It has to be fully with your heart. You have to surrender to the Guru, and the Guru is the only way to liberation.

I am missing the powerful duo of Gītā and Vidyā together. Hey, one Maurya bhajan? Yes? Come, come closer. I would like to be called yours. God, please take care of me. This is between you and me. A third person shouldn’t know about it. My speech will be steady if you are by me. Please give me a signal. To whom shall I talk about you? You have made me insane. I have accepted your protection. I owe to the world. I want to take a vow to serve. I want to suffer the trials and not let anyone know. I want to stay with you. This is what I would like. Let me be blessed. Let me sing your praise. Give me these opportunities where I can be truthful. What are your plans? Let me be a devotee of the Lord. Pūle Śrī Dīp Nārāyaṇa Bhagavān Kī Jai
