Sadguru Madhuri · Pad 4
jāuṁ guru, charaṇa-kamala balihāra
Original pad by Jagadguru Shri Kripalu Ji Maharaj
English meaning
I sacrifice myself on the lotus-feet of my Spiritual Master! By taking shelter in these lotus-feet, the mind tastes the nectar of the divine līlās of Shrī Shyāmā-Shyāma and it is through the grace of these feet alone that the darkness of ignorance is dispelled forever. By meditating on these lotus-feet, once gets naturally detached from the world. By reverently applying the holy dust of these lotus-feet to the eyes, one is blessed with the divine vision of Shyāmasundara. Jagadguru Shrī Kripālu Jī says that although there is no difference between God and the Spiritual Master, yet, since the attainment of God is possible only through a Spiritual Master, the devotee ought to be especially grateful to the latter.

The original verse in Roman letters, as printed in the English edition.
jāuṁ guru, charaṇa-kamala balihāra
jina charanana kī sharaṇa gahata mana, pāvata yugala-bihāra
jina charanana ko dhyāna dharata mana, miṭata jagata aṁdhiyāra
jina charanana anukampā jaga mahaṁ, rahata na raha sansāra
jina charanana-raja āṁji charāchara, dīkhata nandakumāra
yadapi ‘kripālu’ bheda nahiṁ hari-guru, tadapi guruhiṁ ābhāra
