Traditional Hindu paths emphasize Guru Brahma, Guru Vishnu, Guru Devo Maheshwara . However, the specific quality of Samarthya Data is central here. In the Shree Aniruddha Upasana tradition, the guru is not merely a teacher (dispenser of jnana ) but an active agent who bestows capability . This aligns with the concept of Shaktipata (descent of grace), where the guru awakens the dormant spiritual energy within the disciple.
