Sri Krishnaya Namah!

My ignorant mind thinks that there is no difference between a guru and 
God. We can deduce and vet this concept if we recall that the term 'Guru' 
should be attributed to Lord Srimannarayana. He is the Guru of all Gurus. 
This was illustrated in SMB where Brahma, after his birth in a lotus went 
in search of the creator in the duct of the flower itself and could reach 
nowhere, as it is anantha (We fondly call Him as Ananthapadmanabha). 
Realising his inability, Brahma does penance for about 10,000 years. Then 
the Lord appears before him and teaches niceties and nuances of creation, 
cause and his duty etc., This was the noble deed by the Parabrahman and 
His krupa that saw Brahma going about the creation, effortlessly.

No deed in this world is as difficult as creation of this 
universe/charaachara shrusti..
No preaching is comparable to the preachings that Lord has given to Brahma.

After the creation of this universe and chara & achara shrusti, once again 
Lord, seeing the misery and agnanam around, came down
as Sage Kapila, who have given us sankya yoga (SMB Vth Skanda eloquently 
details out on this). Further, since this Sankya Yoga is levelled at 
gyanis, He once again came down as Sage Vyasa, who effortlessly bifurcated 
the vedas into four part. Vedas engulfs the entire universe and is he the 
reason behind every activity. Vedas are the foudation for this universe. 
Thus, Brahma calls him 'Veda Vyasa'.

It is said that, Sri Veda Vyasa promised that He will be present within all 
the gurus/teaches/sadhus/sanths in this world and spread knowledge around 
the globe.

Needless to say, He gave us the noble and sacred BG thru Lord Krishna, 
which is the essence of vedas and which has universal appeal just like 
vedas. He is Yogeshwara and Jagadguru.


It is His krupa that I am in this group, in which Veda Vyasa is spreading 
bhakthi and gyana through several gyanis for thwarting my agyana. My 
humble pranams, on this auspicious occasion, to all the divine souls in 
this forum, specifically, Sri Sadagopan Iyengar, for opening my inner eyes 
through articles which are divine.



Sukumar


Sri Veda Vyasaya Nama Hari Om!
