This document contains two Sanskrit prayers. The first prayer honors the goddess Sharada and describes her as enlightening, holding a veena and book, destroying ignorance, and sitting on a lotus. The second prayer honors the cosmic principle of the guru, saying the guru embodies the qualities of Brahma, Vishnu, and Maheshvara and represents the three gunas of sattva, rajas, and tamas. It explains the gunas represent clear conscience, ego, and ignorance, and says the guru takes followers beyond the three gunas from ignorance to knowledge.
