Guru Dakshina: An Offering
Why do we…? This is how we commenced our week. Did it feel more meaningful? Were you more intentional? 🌸
The Significance of our Samskaras has allowed us to slooooooooow down and focus on the why instead of the what, the vision behind the action. Without this intention, do-ing does not lead us to development.
In Shrimad Bhagavad Gita, Shri Krishna shares that doing alone is not yoga, but rather it is by being deliberate in our actions that we evolve.
By providing a framework for nurturing values of love, growth, morality, and responsibility through our day-to-day lives, our loving Guide has shown us that though it can feel impossible, it is possible to learn in each experience.
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.
