God Sends, Guru's, Teachers To Guide Us, And Help Us To Smoothly Sail, In This Journey of Spiritual World! But, Who Are Guru's ? Jagadguru's & Satguru's ? 


Guru
Teacher

·         One who is regarded as having great knowledge, wisdom, and authority in a certain area, and who uses it to guide others (teacher). Parents, school teachers, non-human objects (books) and even one's own intellectual discipline can act as guides.
o   One of the main Hindu texts, the Bhagavad Gita, is a dialogue between God in the form of Krishna and his friend Arjuna, a Kshatriya prince who accepts Krishna as his guru on the battlefield, prior to a large battle. Not only does this dialogue outline many of the ideals of Hinduism, but their relationship is considered an ideal one of Guru-Shishya. In the Gita, Krishna speaks to Arjuna of the importance of finding a guru:
§  Acquire the transcendental knowledge from a Self-realized master by humble reverence, by sincere inquiry, and by service. The wise ones who have realized the Truth will impart the Knowledge to you.
§  In the sentence mentioned above, guru is used more or less interchangeably with satguru (literally: true teacher) and satpurusha. Compare also Swami. The disciple of a guru is called a śisya or chela. Often a guru lives in an ashram or in a gurukula (the guru's household), together with his disciples. The lineage of a guru, spread by disciples who carry on the guru's message, is known as the guru parampara, or disciplic succession.
·         Gurus do not appeal to scriptures for their authority, nor are they prophets who declare the will of God. Indeed, there is an understanding in some forms of Hinduism that if the devotee were presented with the guru and God, first he would pay respect to the guru, since the guru had been instrumental in leading him to God. Some traditions claim "Guru, God and Self" (Self meaning soul, not personality) are one and the same.
·         Guru Purnima is the day when the disciple wakes up and expresses gratitude. The purpose of the Guru Purnima (or Poornima) celebration is to review the preceding year to see how much one has progressed in life, to renew one's determination, and to focus on one's progress on the spiritual path.
·         Guru Puja (literally "worship of the guru") the practice of worshiping the guru through the making of offerings and requesting inspiration from the guru. Vows and commitments made by the disciple or shishya, which might have lost their strength, are renewed.
·         Guru Bhakti (literally "devotion to the guru") is considered important in many schools and sects.
·         Sri Raghavendra Swamy, Shirdi Sai Baba, Buddha, Sri Guru Nanak Dev ji fall under this category.

---------------------------------------------------------------------------

Sadguru or Satguru
True Teacher

·         An overall preacher of the all Existences including the fundamental secrets of the world, body, energy, self, soul, maya and GOD.
·         He is the real Sadhu, who can reveal the form of the Formless to the vision of these eyes;
Who teaches the simple way of attaining Him, that is other than rites or ceremonies;
Who does not make you close the doors, and hold the breath, and renounce the world;
Who makes you perceive the Supreme Spirit wherever the mind attaches itself;
Who teaches you to be still in the midst of all your activities.
Ever immersed in bliss, having no fear in his mind, he keeps the spirit of union in the midst of all enjoyments.
The infinite dwelling of the Infinite Being is everywhere: in earth, water, sky, and air;
Firm as the thunderbolt, the seat of the seeker is established above the void.
He who is within is without: I see Him and none else.
·         Lord Rama is an illustration of Satguru.

-----------------------------------------------------------------

Jagadguru
Guru of the world

·         Title bestowed upon acharyas who have written Sanskrit commentaries on BramhaSutra, Bhagavadgita and Upanishads
·         They established institutions to spread Dharma and are accepted as supreme spiritual masters of Hindu religion.
·         Also used for several Gods by poets.
·         Adi shankaracharya, Srimad Ramanujacharya, Srimad Madhwacharya, Sri.Krishna fall under this category.
