Guru and Healer
गुरुवे सर्व लोकानां
भेषजे भव रोगिणां।
निधये सर्व विद्यानां
दक्षिणामूर्तये नमः॥
(the One who is the)
Guru of all realms
Remedy to the ailment of mundane existence;
Treasure of All Knowledge
Obeisance to (that) Dakshinamurty.
Essence of Pranava
ॐ नमः प्रणवार्थाय
शुद्धज्ञानैक मूर्तये।
निर्मलाय प्रशान्ताय
दक्षिणामूर्तये नमः॥
Obesiance to the Essence of Pranava
(and) the one and only Embodiment of Pure Knowledge;
(the one who is) Immaculate (and) Tranquil
Obeisance to (that) Dakshinamurty.
Gurumurti Dakshinamurty
यस्यैव स्फुरणम् सदात्मकमसत्कल्पार्थकं भासते
साक्षात्तत्त्वमसीति वेदवचसा यो बोधयत्याश्रितान्।
यत्साक्षात्करणात्भवेन्न पुनरावृत्तिर्भवाम्भोनिधौ
तस्मै श्री गुरुमूर्तये नम इदं श्रीदक्षिणामूर्तये ॥
- Dakshinamurty Stotram by Adi Shankaracharya: stanza ॥3॥
owing to the Radiance of Whom, the Real Self manifests as the Ostensible Universe,
(and) the direct experience of the Vedic words, tat-tavam-asi, is appercieved by those who have sought refuge (in Him);
"That", Whose Realisation, becomes instrumental cause, of revisitation into the ocean of worldly existence,*
unto Him, the manifestation of Guru, Shri Dakshinamurty, is our obeisance.
[*until “That” (as in “tattvamasi” = "thou art That") is Realised,
the cycle of rebirth into (that ostensible) world continues.]
