Sadaasiva Samaarambhaam Sankaracharya Madhyamaam Asmathaacharya Paryanthaam Vande Guru Paramparaam.
The lineage of teachers start with Lord Shiva himself, Adi Sankara in the middle and my current Guru in the end. I offer my respects to all.
It is said that the first Guru is Lord Shiva himself. From him, the teachings are given to us through our Acharyas. In that lineage, Adi Sankara Bhagawatpada is in the middle and towards the end of the line is our own Guru who taught us the scriptures. Since all that we have learnt till now and what we are going to learn from now on are all due to the blessings and efforts of this Guru Parampara, it is customary to invoke this Guru Vandan every time we start any chants or prayers or any lesson being learnt newly.
