Shree Guru Gita 

Sri Guru Gita is an hour-long, ancient, gentle yet powerful Sanskrit chant that evokes peace of mind and heart, describing and honoring the Universal Power of Grace called Guru, and the beautiful forms through which that power flows. This rendition of Gurugita captures and invokes the deep gratitude one experiences from being blessed by, in this singer's case, two divine forms of the Universal Guru.

If you have only one minute, you may want to click forward randomly and see what contemplation teaching shows up. For those who have not been initiated into an understanding of the Universal Guru, that is what this esoteric text refers to, as well as the beautiful forms through which that Universal Guru shines.
