nama oṁ viṣṇu-pādāya kṛṣṇa-preṣṭhāya bhū-tale
śrīmate jayapatāka svāmin iti nāmine

oṁ ajñāna-timirāndhasya jñānāñjana-śalākayā
cakṣur unmīlitaṁ yena tasmai śrī-gurave namaḥ

mūkaṁ karoti vācālaṁ paṅguṁ laṅghayate girim
yat-kṛpā tam ahaṁ vande śrī-guruṁ dīna-tāriṇam
paramānanda-mādhavam śrī-caitanya-īśvaram
“I offer my respectful obeisance unto my spiritual master, the deliverer of the fallen souls. His mercy turns dumb into eloquent speakers and enables the lame to cross mountains.”

Guru-gītā, Skanda Purāṇa dialogue between Śiva and Umā (Śakti)
Translation: The guru’s form is the best to meditate upon; the guru’s feet are the best for worship; the guru’s word is the mantra; the guru’s grace is the root of liberation.
