17. Vrī Mahダdeva saidŚ O Devī, this gurumahダtmyam, glory of the Guru is the greatest mystery of all mysteries. This is not to be revealed to anyone. I have never revealed this to anyone before. But I shall tell you because of your great devotion to Me.

Mahadevダ is revealing the extreme secret of all secrets – rahasyダti-rahasyakaṁ to Devī Pダrvatī. The only qualification to receive the sacred secrets from the very heart of Lord Viva is devotion onto Viva, the embodied Guru. The Guru awaits the qualified disciple to reveal these secrets. Parvati is the first disciple of Mahadeva.

Devī is the first disciple of Mahダdeva. Devī Pダrvati, Adi Vakti is the first discipleś because Devī had initiation first.

In Nithyananda Jnana Paddhati, the ultimate compilation from the revealed scriptures of Paramashiva, Vedas and Agamas.

The first verse statesŚ

Wri bhagavダn ucダva

ati kautuhalダviṣṭダ pracchasyetacasr┣ṇu priye

yanme netrダntare vahniryadvダmrtam-anuttamam || 1.21 ||

"You ask these questions with great eagerness and intense yearning. Listen dear."

Mahadeva sets a very clear context about how a disciple should be and how a Guru should be.

How should a disciple be? Intense yearning, eagerness, and seeking.

How should a Guru be? Overflowing with love.

See the word He is using "priye," "listen dear" - literally the kind of the love due to which the Guru feels Oneness with the disciple.

A disciple will feel Oneness with Guru if he has intense seeking,eagerness, and surrender. The Guru will feel Oneness with the disciple with the intense love. So how a Guru should be, and how a disciple should be - in this one line, the first verse - Mahadeva clears it.

Integrity to the Guru again, again and again, removes the tirobhava, delusion. Many times the heights your logic cannot scale up, the space your visualisation cannot grasp, the energy your being cannot catch can manifest only by the integrity to Guru and His Grace.

You need to have this one fundamental understanding during the whole journey - Make Guruvak as ultimate.

Make Guruvak as ultimate.

Make Guruvak as ultimate.

The great Lord Paramashiva's response was simple, direct and startling, "It is to the Guru I bow." Understand, the unmanifest manifest, making the manifest experience Oneness is Guru.

Guru Tattva is eternal. Guru Tattva is the grand narrative. Gurus come and go. Guru Tattva is the grand narrative. Gurus are like news. Let's bow down to the Guru Tattva.

The greatest sacrificer in the Universe - Tyaga Raja is Guru - because He sacrifices His good name. It's too easy to sacrifice everything for a good name, but simply impossible to sacrifice good name. A real Guru does not bother even about good name. He bothers only about the result, making that disciple experience Oneness. He knows He is going to fight with ignorance. Many times people who cannot separate themselves from ignorance will also come for fight. They don't understand He's only fighting with the ignorance. You just disconnect with the ignorance, He is not going to be fighting with you, that's all He expects. But ignorant people are not that intelligent to unclutch from ignorance. They pick up the weapon and try to come and fight.

Understand, Guru is the person who is ready to sacrifice that last thing - good name also for the sake of the integrity to disciples' enlightenment. The only thing He stands for is disciples' enlightenment. The uncompromising, integrity to disciples' enlightenment. He doesn't bother about any of that so-called good name, so-called society's branding.

It's very easy to give up money, wealth, and everything else for a good name. But only a person who is ready to give up even the good name to be integrated to disciples' enlightenment, to the Science of Enlightenment, to keep doing what He is supposed to do with integrity - only that person is a real Guru.

Real Guru can be recognised by what He does when He loses all the good name and social branding. What He does when all the good name and social branding is lost, based on that you can find who is the real Guru. If He continues to stand with the spiritual truths and goes on working for the enlightenment of the world, then you can understand He's a genuine Guru.
