GARLANDS TO HER :

The Paramaguru was like a priceless treasure chest of humility. In this discourse when he speaks about the garlands, he reveals a great truth. It is well known that instead of wearing the garlands offered to him round his neck, he would wear them on his head. Here he speaks of offereing the garlands to Amba. The guru's feet are held by his disciple. So we must realise that our Acarya's guru was Amba herself.
