"Guru Ashtakam" attributed to the 8th century Hindu philosopher and theologian Adi Shankarachariya. 

A beautiful Sanskrit verse from the Guru Gita:
"Guror Angri Padme Manashchenna Lagnam,
Tatah Kim, Tatah Kim, Tatah Kim, Tatah Kim"
[My mind is fixed on the guru's lotus feet,
What fear, what fear, what fear, what fear?]
This verse signifies the devotee's unwavering dedication to their guru. By fixing their mind on the guru's lotus feet:
1. All fears dissolve
2. Protection is guaranteed
3. Spiritual growth ensues
4. Inner peace prevails
May the guru's blessings be upon us.
