Guru Gita

In class two, Swamiji translates verses 1 through 15, and explains each verse in depth. The discourse begins with Shiva and Shakti, who are united on Mount Kailas. The Goddess asked Lord Shiva, “Please give me initiation of the Guru.” Lord Shiva’s response commences the instruction of how to become a true disciple. Swamiji explains the importance of integrating the wisdom of the Guru Gita into our daily lives. If we study this text, and we do not make changes in our lives, then we are wasting our time.
