Guru Bhagavat app for iPhone and iPad

Shri Guru Bhagavat originally written in Odia language is an unparalleled creation of Dr. Chandra Bhanu Satpathy, after his sojourn and evolution in the spiritual realm. Guru Bhagavat in the Odia language runs into five volumes containing 20,000 verses. This book elaborately depicts the theme of devotion towards the Guru following the basic features of Guru tradition.

Shri Guru Bhagavat has been translated in English, Hindi, Bengali, Assamees, Gujarati, Marathi, Telegu, Bhojpuri, Sanskrit, Kashmiri and also in Braille-Hindi & Odia.

If author’s published poetic treatise “Gopyaru Agopya” is considered a treatise of spiritual knowledge, then Guru Bhagavat is a book on devotion. In Odia and other regional languages of India, there do not appear to be books solely on the theme of the Guru tradition in its totality. This treatise contains invaluable aspects of human life like the greatness and uniqueness of Shri Guru, the different levels of Gurus, the Guru-disciple relationship and the importance of serving the Guru.

It is written in the poetic meter (each line with nine letters in a couplet form) of the Bhagabat written by Shri Jagannath Das. For every seeker on a spiritual journey, who aims to cross the ocean of worldly existence while taking shelter in the boat of the Guru, this book is a treasure for daily study. Such is the influence of this book that even non-Odia speaking people living outside Odisha have started learning the Odia language, in order to understand the book. Since quite some time, this treatise are being regularly recited as devotional prayers, in various Sai temples and in the villages of Odisha. So far, this book has been published in five volumes in the Odia and nine other languages. The Former President of India, Dr Pratibha Devisingh Patil has recognized Dr. Chandra Bhanu Satpathy for this magnum opus. There is no doubt that the readers and devotees will be benefited from this text in various ways.
