Shree Guru Gita

   Om, this is the shree Guru Gita stotra-mantra having
the eternal Lord Shiva as the seer.
   With different modes are the metres,
The supreme Self of shree Guru is the deity.
   Ham is the seed,
Sah the shakti,
Krom the pillar.
   In order to attain the prasad of shree Guru
   is the repeating purpose.
       Now meditation,
   By Ham and Sah, by a lotus surrounded by petals,
   by the divine cause of the world,
the universe arose by living in innumerable bodies,
   for its own pleasure by the will of the Self.
   On that light which is but the foot of Shambhu, a foot
   holding the flame of a lamp,
on the visible imperishable form, the Guru's foot,
   one should meditate firmly and perpetually.
   For me, to attain the four kinds of life goals
   is the repeating purpose.
On the summit of Mount Kailasa resplendent,
   to the master of union with devotion
having pranamed, Parvati, with devotion,
   questioned Shankara...
       Shree Goddess said,
Om, salutations, O God, O Lord of gods,
   Beyond the beyond, O Guru of the universe!
O eternal Shiva, O great God,
   the Guru initiation give to me!
By which path O Swami,
   should an embodied one full of Brahman become?
Do your grace unto me O Swami,
   I am bowing to your feet.
       Ishvara said,
My form O Goddess you are,
   for your love am I speaking,
Helpful to the world is the question,
   not by anyone even done before.
Difficult to attain in the three worlds,
   listen to what I am saying,
There is no other Guru apart from Brahman,
   this is true, this is true, O beautiful one.
