॥ गुरुस्त्वमेव त्वमेव भगवान्॥


(Sung by Smt. Devi)

गुरुस्त्वमेव त्वमेव भगवान्,
दक्षिण वामौ तव तौ दत्त! (पल्लवी)

O Datta! Only You are the preacher and Only You are the God. Both the Preacher and God became Your right and left sides.
{The preacher of the right goal is more important than even the right goal and hence, preacher becomes more important right side.}

सहस्र तर्क ज्ञान दायक!
त्वं सहस्रार परम शिवः ॥

You are the ultimate God Datta called Paramaśiva existing in the top of head called Sahasrāracakra. This denotes that You are the Sadguru giving true Spiritual knowledge based on thousand types of logical arguments represented by lotus flower with thousand petals.

कुण्डलिनी तु परा प्रकृतिरहम्,
मूले तमसा शक्ति वीचिः ॥

The Parāprakṛti or awareness, which is the energy travelling as waves is My soul itself, called Kuṇḍalinī, sleeping with Tamas or solid matter in the starting Mūlādhāracakra.)
{Sattvam is awareness or a specific work form of inert energy modified in functioning brain-nervous system, Rajas is inert energy propagated as quantised particles and Tamas is the solidified matter of inert energy.}

संसार बन्ध चक्र षट्के
तव बन्धात् गलिते स योगः ॥

The six lower cakras or wheels represent the six main worldly bonds. When the soul crosses all these worldly bonds and reaches the Sadguru or contemporary human incarnation of God for true knowledge, then, it is called Yoga or fortunate union.
{The Sahasrāra, six cakras and Kuṇḍalinī do not exist in the human body as a pictorial system. This is only a figure of speech explaining the process of reaching the Sadguru by a human soul after crossing all worldly fascinations. All these cakras are represented on the spinal cord or Meru because these worldly fascinations are modes of awareness flowing through the spinal cord. The Sahasrāra is represented in the top place of brain, which is intelligence needed for the Spiritual knowledge preached by Sadguru. The sleeping Kuṇḍalinī is nothing but the awareness or soul represented by a lower faculty called mind bound by ignorance sleep and controlled by fascination towards materialised items of creation since Mūlādhāracakra stands for solid matter or earth.}
