Gruha devataam
ddhyayaami
Ddhyaanam samarpayaami
I respectfully
contemplate our family Godhead
Finally, it is necessary to pay
respect to the family guru (Guru here refers to aachaaryaas such as
Adi Shankarachaarya, Ramanujaachaarya, Madhvaachaarya) and offer
prayer before beginning the ceremony by chanting
Guru brahmaa
gururvishnuhu gururdevo maheswararaha
Guru saakshaat
parabrahma tasmai sreeguruve namaha
Salutations to the
preceptor who is verily Brahma, Vishnu and Maheshwara and who
personifies the Supreme Being. |
