Guru Dakshina: An Offering
Rewind to the beginning of our year together. It might have been difficult to sit still during meditation, tough to recall technicalities or even the essence of the course material, or hard to fathom how any of this knowledge could move from theory to practice. (It still might be challenging, haha!)
Fast forward to the present. Week after week, under the patient and loving guidance of the Guru, maybe we’ve become a little calmer. Maybe we’re able to take a breath before responding to an email, rather than reacting. Maybe our kids actually remembered something from Happy Hour. And maybe we’re able to focus just a little bit more during contemplation (just a little bit more!).
In Vedantic tradition, teachings are given freely. After all, what price can one put on Happiness? The guidance that a Guru offers sincere seekers to navigate their daily lives on the journey for Joy is priceless. Still, out of gratitude and fulfillment, the student seeks to give back!
This offering — dakshina — is to express understanding and appreciation of the Guru’s dedication and sacrifice and is used to further the sharing of Spiritual Knowledge.
