Chanting divine mantras
The Satguru is the direct manifestation of the Supreme Lord.
Devotion to the Satguru is the highest path. The guru's grace is supremely powerful. Even great sages did not attain without a guru. When the Vedas themselves became the guru, self-knowledge was easily gained. The Satguru's lotus feet are the support of consciousness. The Satguru's name is the refuge of the compassionate yogi. It destroys sins from countless eons. Service to the Satguru leads one to the fourteen heavens. Few understand this secret. The fool does not recognize it. Chant the Satguru's name day and night. It is your companion across lifetimes. If true happiness is desired, focus the mind on guru-service. Guru-service destroys all obstacles and delusions. The Self then shines forth. When prior merits ripen, the mind merges in the Satguru.
"Satguru nām japo dina rāti, janama janama kā hai yah sāthī."
"Guru sevā sarva sabhāvidhnā vināśī, miṭe bhrama ātmā prakāśī."
