This sweet hymn always reminds me of Gurumayi, Baba Muktananda, and Bade Baba. I feel a little sparkle in my heart and I know it’s the Guru’s love. For me it’s a gentle reminder to meditate on my Self.

This prayer is so powerful that whenever I sing it, all my confusion melts away and my heart gets filled with blissful energy, courage, and an ecstatic deep love for my Guru. I feel so connected to my heart that I stay still and calm for quite an extended period of time.
My relationship with my Guru gets stronger every time I sing this prayer.

It was delightful to sing these verses. Though it has been a long time since I last heard this beautiful hymn, the melody and the lyrics came to me easily from within.
This sweet music on the Siddha Yoga path website, along with so many other examples, both invokes and expresses my deep appreciation for this path and for the Siddha Yoga Gurus.

As my husband and I sang
Gurudeva Hamara Pyara on the last day of the month, my heart was filled with love and gratitude for the guidance Gurumayi has provided us throughout the month. I was especially thankful for the various chants and hymns to Shiva, as well as the stories about Mahashivaratri and devotion on the Siddha Yoga path website.
The Siddha Yoga practices are truly my way to connect to the Guru's
shakti. They
are my life’s support!

A deep yearning to be with the Guru rose in my heart, and I knew to go to the Siddha Yoga path website. Swirls of love danced in my whole being when I saw the Guru's
padukas and heard my favorite hymn,
Gurudeva Hamara Pyara. I sang it along with the recording. The wish of my heart was granted.

The image of the Guru's
padukas is a wonderful meditation in itself! And the sounds and meaning of this hymn are inexpressibly sweet. About a week ago, as I woke up from a dream, I was singing, "
hai jivana ko adhara" over and over to myself. It was so sweet to remember which hymn the words are from. And I was reminded, deep in my heart, that the Guru
is my life's support.

I remember the weekly and monthly
satsangs in my childhood and teenage years. We used to sing this
bhajan at the conclusion of each
satsang, experiencing the meaning of every line as we sang it. As a result, we would bring home with us a different joy and energy after
satsang.
So this
bhajan has always been a favorite of mine. And singing the last verse instantly gives me a lighthearted feeling and fresh energy to move forward in life.

This hymn has always brought me happiness. As I sing of my love for my Guru, I fill with joy. I love the way
Gurudeva Hamara Pyara gives me a natural way to express my devotion as I walk this path, so abundant with grace and the blessings showered upon me this year.
Looking forward to the year ahead, I know I am guided by Gurumayi’s shining light; I feel steadfast and secure.
