Gurudev bring us haven to haven
The teaching focuses on the practice of Brahmārī and the nature of the Guru. The Brahmārī is a technique centered in the heart, the body, and expressed through sound. There are many aspects to it, some unseen. True guidance is essential; attempting the practice without a genuine connection to a teacher can cause problems. The real Guru is a supreme principle, beyond even divine forms. Many are called guru, as anyone who teaches something holds that role temporarily. The physical distinctions of male and female are superficial; inwardly, there is unity. All beings and elements participate in this reality. Practice involves specific techniques of breath and awareness directed at the heart and navel, coordinating sound and inhalation precisely.
"Above them is the guru. That guru is above even Śiva."
"Everybody who gives us something is our guru."
