Title: Guruleka
Ragam: Gowri Manohari
Talam: Khanda Chapu(5 beats)
Composer: Tyagaraja

Doromb/Parmupill: Kaupo Kaur a.k.a. Gehaka

lyrics

Meaning:

No one, however virtuous he may be, without the grace of a Guru will know!

No one, however virtuous he may be, without the grace of a Guru will know how to cut through the forest of mental ills (the Tapatraya)!

It is the good Guru, who is Tyagaraja's friend who out of compassion imparts the knowledge of the Supreme, which is the medicine that cures one of the sorrows caused by the cycles of birth and death and the associated bodily suffering and attachments.
