The Supreme Lord, moved by the devout and reverential homage of his
disciples in accord with scriptural prescriptions in countless former
births, incarnates out of compassion in the form of a Guru; he thereby
comes within the orbit of sight, freely transmits to them the
wisdom concerning Ultimate Reality, and enables them to cross over
the ocean of sorrowful samsara, the realm of conditioned existence.

One's vesture may be superb, one's consort likewise, one's reputation
resplendent and renowned, and one's riches like unto Mount Meru; but if
one's mind be not centred upon the lotus feet of the Guru,
what then, what then, what then?
