Mantra
Devanagari:
गुरवे सर्वलोकानां भिषजे भवरोगिणाम्
निधये सर्वविद्यानां दक्षिणामूर्तये नमः
चित्रवटतरोर्मूले वृद्धशिष्या गुरुर्युवा
गुरोस्तु मौनव्याख्यानं शिष्यास्तु छिन्नसंशयाः
Transliteration:
Gurave Sarvalokanam Bhishaje Bhavaroginam
Nidhaye Sarvavidyanam Dakshinamurtaye Namaha
Chitravatatarormule Vriddhashishya Gururyuva
Gurostu Maunavyakhyanam Shishyastu Chhinnasamshayah
Translation:
To the Guru of all the worlds, the physician for those afflicted by worldly existence,
The treasure-house of all wisdom, salutations to Lord Dakshinamurthy;
Wondrous it is beneath the banyan tree: the disciples are aged while the Guru is ever-youthful,
The Guru's exposition is supreme silence, yet the disciples' doubts are completely dispelled.
