Go ahead, teach me what I need to know.
Akhańd́a mańd́alákáraḿ
You pervade all the worlds
vyáptaḿ yena carácaraḿ
and you are beyond them
Tadpadaḿ darshitaḿ yena
Yet you allow me to sit in your presence
tasmae Shrii Gurave namah
To that guru I offer my divine salutation
Ajiṋána timirán dhasya
I was blinded by ignorance
jiṋánáiṋjana shalákayá
with healing wisdom
Cakśurunmilitaḿ yena
you applied the medicine to my eyes
tasmae Shrii Gurave namah
To that guru I offer my divine salutation
Gurur Brahmá, Gurur Viśńu,
Guru the creator, guru the preserver
Gurur Devo Maheshvara
Guru who is Shiva the destroyer
Gurureva Parama Brahma
guru who is none other than the all-creator
tasmae Shrii Gurave namah
To that guru I offer my divine salutation
