My salutations again and again go to Lord Guruguha, he who bestows favors on His devotees and is ever youthful.

He is the preceptor, and showers blessings upon His devotees. He transcends the three Gunas and is the unmanifested one. He manifests as Shiva, Vishnu and Brahma. He shines as Sat-Cit and Ananda and is the auspicious one.

He knows the essence of all Agamas and Mantras. Well versed in the righteous path, He manifests as both whole and many. He is established in the harmonious union of individual self and the supreme one. He confers the freedom from the cycle of birth and death. He is the immutable one, with supreme wisdom, whose feet are worshiped by Shuka and Vamadeva. He bestowed salvation on them.
