I salute, Shri Chinmaya, the noble teacher, the best of the knowers of Brahman (the highest Reality), and who full of compassion, is ever engaged in the welfare of all people.

Description

I bow down to my Sadguru. The name is indicated: Chinmayam devam. He is Brahmavidvaram, the shreshtha or best among the knowers of Brahman. For any adhyatmik, spiritual teacher, the most endearing quality there is, is karunamayam, their compassionate nature. They are shrotriyas, brahmanishthas, but they are compassionate teachers. Sometimes, one’s compassion remains limited; generally, in ordinary people, it is limited to near and dear ones, but here it is samasta-jana kalyane, the one who remains ever engaged in the welfare of all people. There are no bars or restrictions. Ignorant people would keep asking why does Swamiji go to America? They would think it is for some fun or an outing, but masters go there because people are there—seekers are there. So, wherever seekers and people are, for those who seek knowledge or other kind of help, masters go for that purpose everywhere.
