LYRICS

Aruna Ramana Sree Guru deva

Shesha Ramana Sath Guru deva

Bhava bhaya harana Sree Sai deva ( 3 )

Guru hai Sath Chith

Anand deva

Anand deva Sree Sai deva.

OBSERVATION 1:

Based on the mythological story of Aruna and Sesha.

Aruna – Head of the eagle family, forefather of Jatayu, charioteer of Surya deva, ...

Sesha – Head of the snake family, served vishnu as lakshmana,...

Aruna and Sesha are born to the same father but different mothers ( who were jealous of each other )

So, the two families have always been at war with each other.

The first two lines describes the one who is the Guru of the two families .

OBSERVATION 2:

Line : Bhava bhaya harana Sree Sai deva

Meaning : The one who removes the fear of life.

Line: Guru hai Sath Chith

Anand deva

Anand deva Sree Sai deva.

This line says that ‘guru’ is ‘anand’ which comes after the

realization of the truth and becoming an aware being.

OBSERVATION 3:

This bhajan describes three stages in a journey.

Stage 1: the Guru attracts all types of disciples.

Stage 2: the Guru removes fear.

Stage 3: the Guru teaches the truth and the

realization comes that the Guru is indeed the

destination itself .

Therefore Guru seems to be the path and the

destination in the spiritual journey.
