Seeing God universally and bliss in ownself, one should enjoy adwaita bhava and this way is uncomparable. If one condemns his Guru he enters hell and remains there for ever.

If one calls his Guru irreverantly or abuses him or wins over him in any battle of wisdom, he becomes a Bramma rakshas i.e. a ghost living in a forest without water or food for ever. If he has been cursed by Rishis, serpants or devas or anybodyelse like Yama, he becomes blessed by the ever flowing grace and protection of Gurudeva.

Even devas, rishis become powerless if they are receipt of Guru’s curse and gets defeated. “Guru” is a two lettered word, which is great mantra with immortality / potency which can lift one to high elevation beyond comprehension of human mind.

Even if one does not have knowledge in sruthis, smiritis etc. but he is an ardent servant of his Guru it is enough to fetch him highest results and leads him to dvelve upon nirakara brahman on his own.

One should medidate upon the Paramatma swaroopa which is beyond the unreachable of all but is remaining evershing jewel at the heart of one’s own self like that of a pure spatika. It shines like a pure spatika as can be seen in a mirror likewise chid akaara bliss can be seen in one’s own self by Guru’s grace.

He is only of the size of one’s own right finger, as is seen in his heart’s place wherefrom bhava takes birth; listen to this calmly as he is without any form or name except he is codified as Brahmam.

Just like the smell of suganda is fragrant from that of karpoor or flowers one its own self by its nature, likewise thro’ the feeling of cold or sweat brahma can be felt always. It should be
meditated upon with one pointedness as that of a keetaka kept by a brahmara.
Gurudhyaanaam tathaa krutvaa svayaam brahmamayo bhavet |

What is pinda, pada which is beyond form which please tell me Oh Mahadeva, Parvati requested.

Sree Mahaadeva uvaaca -

pinde muktaa pade muktaa roope muktaa varaanane |
roopaateete tu ye muktaaste muktaa naatra samsreeaya: || 122||

Kundalinishakthi is the pindam, hamsam is known as padam, roopam is the bindhu and Guru is formless which should be noted. Unless one is free from these entirely he is not known as Jeevan muktha.

One should become formless and become one with universal self and then see it then only he would have advaitha anuboothi beyond comprehension of one’s mental power. With that nireekshan – seeing power – having discarded all his bondages one should become aloof without any desires, to such a magnanimous personality peace becomes a bliss to enjoy with.

sadaananda: sadaa sreeaanto ramate yatrakutracit || 126||

One should not rejoice over food that he eats and should be happy with whatever comes in his way, whether it is tasty or not and eat it with satisfaction. He becomes a Sarvagna in this very bodily bondage and starts enjoying bliss at ever breath of this life, remains blissfull, mental poise at every second he lives here.

By this way if one leads his life, all his works would be beneficial to his nation, beneficial acts with detachment, which those without knowledge cannot understand. A Gnani of this kind does these with niskama bhavana – without any attachment whatsoever for the betterment of the world he lives in.

One who reads this with devotion, hears it or writes this and gives this to others, it fetches him all the benefits he needs. This Gurugeetha – knowledge of this Gurugeetha – as entold by me is the real penecia for these worldly attachments and hence one should recide this often with devotion.

Even one letter of this great maha mantra is very powerful and no other mantra can be equal to 1/16 th of this maha manra. Untold benefits will come in the way of the aspirant who reads this, by papa kshaya and vanishing of poverty etc.

This will drive away akala mrutyu, ward off hurdles on his way, and evils spread by yakshas, rakshasas, thiefs etc. will go way. Even great diseases vanish away and fetch great qualities and siddis alike.

kusreeaasane gnaanasiddhi: sarvasiddhistu kambale || 138||

One should not sit on an asana made of cloth or stone or sit on floor to do japa of this Guru Geetha but should sit on deer skin asna or tiger’s skin asna or darbhasanaor wool asna for attaining sarva siddis.

Darbhasana, doorva asana, white silk cloth asna should be used for doing japa of this Geetha. One should meditate sitting on white or red silk asna and for abhichara other colored asnas should be used.

One gets mental peace and poise always, as also good off springs, long life and sowmanglya to ladies always in his life. Lengthy life without diseas, good off springs and their marriages etc gets done; even those without husbands (vidavas) get moksha by reading this.

Guru geetha is the Kamadhenu of those who approach it and also that of Kalpaka Vruksha in granting boons and acts like Chintamani to those who think of it and is the provider of all that are good ones.

On should do japa of this whether he is a Shaktha, Soura upasaka, Ganapathi upasaka, vaishnava, shaiva this gives him siddhis needed. One who requires kamya prayoga he should do this in certain places like sagara, nadhi theera or at hari or hara temples.

sa eva ca guru: saakshaat sadaa sadbrahmavittama: |
tasya sthaanaani sarvaani pavitraani na samsreeaya: || 158||

One should take bath in the ocean called Gurugeetha and get rid of this samsara, for he becomes a Guru of par excellence and his place becomes pure as ever.

shuchishmaamamscha sadaa gnaanee gurugeetaajapena tu |
tasya darsreeanamaatrena punarjanma na vidyate || 161||


One who is ever pure, seated in a pure asana or stands wherever he is, at that place all devas come in groups and starts residing with him. Whether he is seated or sleeping state or in walking state or talking with somebody or riding a harse or an elephant, whether he is sleeping or in waking state one who is pure bodily and mentally he becomes an exponent of par excellance by reading Gurugeetha always and by his very sight one gets no more births.

tathaiva gnaanee jeevaatmaa paramaatmani leeyate |
aikyena ramate gnaanee yatra tatra divaanisreeam || 163||

As pure water is present in Ocean, milk in milk, ghee in ghee, akasha present in every pot despite being broken similarly Paramatma is present in every jeevatma. Gnani is one who knows this and gets mixed with Him and enjoys His company every second he lives here.


Evamvidho mahaamukta: sarvadaa vartate budha: |

sarvasandeha rahito mukto bhavati paarvati |
bhuktimuktidvayam tasya jihvaagre cha sarasvatee || 165||

In this way the gnanai becomes a liberated soul always and such renowned souls should be served with poojya bhava by doing which one becomes himself liberated and Goddess Saraswathi resides in his tounge.

Anena praanina: sarve gurugeetaa japena tu |

satyam satyam puna: satyam dharmyam saaìkhyam mayoditam |
gurugeetaas amam naasti satyam satyam varaanane || 167||

By doing this and reading Gurugeetha, doing recitation repeatedly, all siddhis becomes the property of the aspirant, bukthi here and mukthi after this bith is assured for him., which can be repeatedly vouchsafed to the aspirant as nothing can be said equal to Gurugeetha.

Maataa dhanyaa pitaa dhanyo dhanyo vamsha: kulam tathaa |

There is only one God i.e. Guru, no greater principle other than Him to such an aspirant who follows this golden principle, his parents, his motherland, his descendents everything becomes sanctified.

The body, indriyas, prana, his ideals, his kith & kin, parents, his vamsha everything is Guru Himself to a real aspirant. Eversince birth whatever pooja, tapas, japa etc. done by the aspirant becomes fruitful the very moment his Guru is really pleased with his student.

gurubhaava: param theertham anya theertham nirarthakam |
sarva theertha asrayam devi paadaaìgushtaham cha vartate || 174||



One’s education, penance, proves becomes powerless unless he does Guru Seva. Brahma, Vishnu, Rudra, devas, rishis, kinnaraas, siddhas, charanaas, other saints, does not help him out unless he does Guru Seva. The contemplation of Guru as most powerful is considered the holy theertha and none else is theertha, as every holy water springs reside on the right index finger of his holy feet.

japan jayam avaapnoti marane mukthi daayakam |
sarvakarma cha sarvatra guruputrasya siddhyati || 177||

One gets success by doing recitation of Gurugeetha if only he dis-associate himself from misdeeds and seated properly in a pure place, in a pure asana, with dhyana bhava; this will help him win over his enemies, gets him liberation at dehavasana time.

Idam rahasyam no vaachyam tavaagre kathitam mayaa |

ateeva pakva chittaaya shraddhaa bhakti yutaaya cha |
pravaktavyam idam devi mamaatmaa'si sadaa priye || 180||

This is the top-most secret which should not be revealed to unqualified persons andshould be kept as a secret for ever. I gave this to you Oh! Devi! As you are my dearmost; hence do not gell to anyone even to tri-moorthis, should be guarded safely.

Abhakte vanchake dhoorte paakhande naastike nare |

daaridrya du:kha bhavaroga vinaasha mantram
vande mahaa bhayaharam gururaaja mantram || 182||

This should not be told at any cost to those who are not devotees, who are not good in character, one who is a disbelieaver. This is the very potential mantra for crossing over ocean of samsara, which is worshipped by bramaa & other devas, which alleviate poverty of the worshipper of this mantra - to such a powerful maha mantra which wards off fear of everyone – I salute Gururaja mantram.



Thus ends Gurugeetha which is entold in Sree Skanda Maha Purana’s Uttarakhanda by way of dialogues between Lord Mahadeva and Goddess Parvathi devi.
