the value of sadguru was told by H H Bhakta Gnanananda Tirtha ( Sri Ogirala Veera Raghava Sarma Garu), the Saint Composer of Carnatac Music of 20 th century in a song sadguru charana saroruha bhakti vina in the raga behag.

h h bhakta gnanananda teertha ( sri ogirala veera raghava sarma garu) the saint composer of carnatac music of 20th century composed a song on guru in the raga behag in praise of his spiritual guru srinathanamda teertha.

pallavi ; sadguru charana saroruha bhakti vina sadgati koorchu susadhanamu ledanna ; sadfguru ;

anupallavi ; sadgunayuta sama damaadi sampadanidi
chidghanaananda sudhakarudai velige ; sadguru ;

charanam ; atulita bhavabhaya baadha lanachi
sugnana tatini goorchu para tatva chaturude
hitamu meera nityaanityamula bodhimchi
satatamu raghava manasa sannutudau sri ; sadguru ;

in the charanam the word chid ghanaananda sudhakarudu indicates that bhakta gnanananda teertha was a paramahamsa.

in one way it is in praise of guru.

in the other way it is in praise of devi gayatry .

this is one spiritual lesson taught to me by gayatry in the form of kamakhya at assam during my stay there during 2001-2004.

this song explains the qualities of a sadguru and what he will do for his disciple.

this is one of the pancharatna kritis of bhakta gnanananda teertha.

notation , sahityam in telugu and tamil is available in my website
