DAIVADASAKAM (Ten Poem of god ) by
Narayana Guru
DAIVADASAKAM
( Ten poem of God )
From the most high, O Divine,
protect us here,
do not leave us.
you are the navigator
of this ocean of ephemeral becoming,
and (to us) your name is a mighty steam ship.
Counting one by one, when everything perceivable is done with,
the n the seeing is steadied; even so,
let the inner self attain its rest in you.
Ever having given us food and clothes
and providing for all such needs,
making us rejoice in our contentment,
You are our only Lord.
As ocean, wave, wind and dept
Let us within see the scheme
of us, nescience,
your glory and you.
You are that fact of creation, the creator
and the myriad variety of what is created;
Oh god, are you not the very stuff of which everything is created?
Are you not Maya, the wielder of maya
and also the rejoicer in maya?
Are you not the True one who,
having removed maya, grants the supreme Union.
You are existence, knowledge and the endeared value;
you yourself are the present, the past and the future
When considered, You are none other
than the articulated world also.
That state which fills, inside a well as outside,
Brim fully with Your glory,' We adore That,
Blessed God of Goodness,
Hail, victory to You.
Victory be to you, God of gods'
Ever intent on saving those in need.
Victory be to you, Blissful intelligence
through and through
Hail, Oh! Ocean of Mercy.
In the deep ocean of Your glory,
Immersed, let us all become
There to dwell, dwell everlastingly
In Felicity Supreme!

What Great men
Said About Guru
“I have been
touring different parts of the world. During these travels, I have had good
fortune to come into contact with several and Monarchies.
But I have frankly to admit I have never come across none is spiritually greater than Swami Shree Narayana Guru of Malayalam may a person who is on a par with him in spiritual attainment.
I am sure, I shall never forget that radiant face illuminated by the self effulgent light of divine glory and those Yogic eyes fixing their gaze on a far remote in the distant horizon.”

“I feel it as the greatest privilege in my life to have visited the beautiful state of Travancore and to have a darshan of venerable sage Shree Narayana Guru. I had the fortune to say one day in his holy Ashram. Her Excellency the Regent Empress also spoke to me about the greatness of Guruswamy. I fervently hope that you

“I feel very happy to come to a place where a great man lived and gave his message to the people. Where great men have lived, that place becomes a holy ground something like temple, because of their thoughts and prayers that lie enshrined there. Shree Narayana Guru lived here and from here radiated his message-the message of no cast, no division and he wanted to build up a casteless and classless society. That message is still very much needed in these days. In order to get a casteless, classless society what are we to do ? Many things have to be done. But the general approach which I presume is Shree Narayana Guru’s approach-the approach through the mind and heart and not of compulsion and coercion. Where there is not this taming of the heart and mind all other changes are likely to be superficial.
I am most happy to have come to this place to pay my tribute to his great man who lived here and spread his message from here.”

“Among the
galaxy of erudite Saints who ennobled and enriched Indian’s cultural heritage,
Shree Narayana Guru occupies a pride of place. By Sheer dint of his lofty
ideals, unflinching loyalty to the canons of humanity, justice, truthfulness,
‘Bhakti’ and his utter selflessness, transparent sincerity, humility, total
renunciation of mundane desires and a commanding grip over spiritual Knowledge,
Shree Narayana Guru acquired a halo of His own and en-dared Himself to all
strata of his devotes. Nothing gave him greater joy than to witness the
amelioration of the deplorable plight of the ‘have nits’ and underdogs of human
society. He was peerless in compassion for the poorer sections of the
community. A purely materialistic existence divorced from the ethical and
spiritual elevation of the individual is inimical to the development of
harmoniously balanced, integrated human society. The spiritual leaders like
Shree Narayana Guru have made valiant efforts towards focusing the attention of
our people on these vital facts of deriving spiritual solace and blissful joy.”

“Shree Narayana Guru who felt the presence of God all the living beings of the Universe, is the Philosopher of Adwaitha-Vedanta of 20th century. It is said that sanyasin by virtue of their indomitable spiritual favor and power of meditation project the World to sustain itself. Shree Narayana Guru has provided the veracity of the above statement beyond suspicion. Viewing from the above prospective, Shree Narayana Guru is none other the than the true reflection of the term ‘divinity’. His sublime Philosophy has enlightened the humanity beyond the frontiers of India. The message of Shree Narayana Gurus all more important in the present world than anything else.”

“Shree Narayana
Guru is considered as one of the five or ten Avatars that have appeared in
India during the last hundred years. I had an opportunity of meeting him in the
year 1925 when I had been to Kerala for Vaikom Styagraha. In those days he was
residing at Varkala. There I had talked to him for an hour or two. My humble
respects to the memory of this great sage.”

Glasenapp does not say anything regarding the new religious manufestations in South India which are not negligible, such for e.g. is the great influence during the past 40 years in the State of Travancore on nearly two millions of this followers (He passed away in 1928) His teaching permeated with the philosophy compared with the mysticism of Bengal, of which effusions of love (Bhakthy) inspire in him a certain mistrest. He was, one might say, a Janine of action, a great religious intellectual, who had a keen living sense of the people and of social necessities. He has contributed greatly to the elevation of the times with that of Gandhi.

A great Social
Reformer, a staunch Promoter of Hindu Religion, and a true Philosopher Shri
Narayana Guru was a revolutionary Yogi of Kerala, Chopping of heads, and
creation of chaos and confusion are not the necessary ingredients of
revolution. Any sincere effort to transform of civilized life is revolution.

During recent centuries no one in India has enjoyed so much reverence as Shri Narayana Gurudev commanded, a reverence so glorious so enduring, so comprehensive, so universal and so pure. Like the sun, by mere presence, he spread his light and love...... His life or renunciation has shown to numerous people the secret of the path of dedicated service or Karma Yoga. Rishi Narayana who has awakened Kerala patanjali in Yoga, Sankara in wisdom, Manu in the art of Government, Buddha in renunciation, Muhammad in strength of sprit and Christ in humility, after 72 years spend in the drama of human life has gone to whence he came......For future generations he will be one of the divine personalities among the incarnations of God and the superhuman beings of India's religious.

Can India rediscover Her Heart? Can Religion a Philosophy of the Upanishads help us in meeting the challenges of our Nation? Can they rediscover our moral balance? All these burning questions are answered in living life by the Sivagiri Ashram. May his blessings be upon all of us, Gurudev was the personification of love as Jesus Christ and Lord Buddha.

ശ്രീനാരായണഗുരു.
കേരളത്തിൽ ജീവിച്ചിരുന്ന ഒരു സന്ന്യാസിയും സാമൂഹിക പരിവർത്തകനും , നവോത്ഥാനനായകനും ആയിരുന്നു ശ്രീനാരായണഗുരു (1856-1928) . ഈഴവ സമുദായത്തിൽ ജനിച്ച അദ്ദേഹം സവർണ്ണമേധാവിത്വത്തിനും സമൂഹതിന്മകൾക്കും എതിരെ കേരളത്തിലെ താഴ്ന്ന ജാതിക്കാർക്ക് പുതിയമുഖം നൽകി. കേരളത്തിലെ ജാതി വ്യവസ്ഥയെ ചോദ്യം ചെയ്ത ഏറ്റവും പ്രധാനപ്പെട്ട സാമൂഹിക പരിഷ്കർത്താവാണു് ശ്രീ നാരായണ ഗുരു. അന്നു കേരളത്തിൽ നിലനിന്നിരുന്ന സവർണ മേൽക്കോയ്മ, തൊട്ടുകൂടായ്മ, തീണ്ടിക്കൂടായ്മ തുടങ്ങിയ ശാപങ്ങൾക്കെതിരെ അദ്ദേഹം പ്രവർത്തിച്ചു. മറ്റു പലരേയും പോലെ ബ്രാഹ്മണരേയും മറ്റു സവർണഹിന്ദുക്കളെയും കുറ്റപ്പെടുത്തുന്നതിനു പകരം ഗുരു വിദ്യാലയങ്ങളും ക്ഷേത്രങ്ങളും സ്ഥാപിച്ച് തന്റെ സമുദായത്തിന്റെ ഉന്നമനത്തിനു വേണ്ടി പ്രവർത്തിച്ചു. മറ്റുള്ളവരോടുള്ള തുറന്ന സമീപനവും അഹിംസാപരമായ തത്ത്വചിന്തയും അദ്ദേഹത്തിന്റെ മുഖമുദ്രകളായിരുന്നു. സാമൂഹ്യതിന്മകൾക്കെതിരെയുള്ള പോരാട്ടമായിരുന്നു അദ്ദേഹത്തിന്റെ ജീവിതം. ഈഴവർ പോലുള്ള അവർണ്ണരുടെ ആചാര്യനായി കരുതപ്പെട്ടിരുന്നെങ്കിലും അദ്ദേഹം ലോകജനതക്കു തന്നെ മാർഗ്ഗദർശകങ്ങളായ പ്രബോധനങ്ങൾ കൊണ്ട് ലോകം മുഴുവനും ആരാധ്യനായിത്തീർന്ന വ്യക്തിത്വമാണ്.
“ ഒരു ജാതി ഒരു മതം ഒരു ദൈവം മനുഷ്യന് ” ഇതായിരുന്നു അദ്ദേഹത്തിന്റെ ആദർശവും ജീവിതലക്ഷ്യവും.തന്റെ സാമൂഹിക പരിഷ്കാരങ്ങൾ പ്രചരിപ്പിക്കാനായി ഡോ.പല്പുവിന്റെ പ്രേരണയാൽ അദ്ദേഹം 1903-ൽ ശ്രീ നാരായണ ധർമ്മ പരിപാലന യോഗം സ്ഥാപിച്ചു.
