Session-8: Verses 92 to 105

In verses 91 to 105 of the Guru Gita, Swamiji explains that “cit” is pure consciousness and “citta” consists of the objects of awareness, such as buddhi (objective knowledge) and mana (subjective knowledge). The Guru wears all white, which represents purity and the absence of all opinions. Swamiji asks, “Can you see the Guru as the Soul of All that is Knowable? Can you treat every atom of creation with the same respect as you would want to treat your Guru?” Love the Guru everywhere! There is no other path to realize God.
