Who is a Parama Guru? It is defined in various ways by Easwara Himself in Skanda Purana. To quote one slokam:
द्वैताद्वैतविनिर्मुक्तः स्वानुभूतिप्रकाशवान् | अज्ञानान्धमश्छेत्ता सर्वज्ञ परमो गुरुः ||
DwaithAdwaithatvinirmuktha: Swaanubhuti Prakaashawaan l Agyanandamaschetta Sarvagnya Paramo Guru: ll
One who is free from the feeling of duality and non-duality, who shines by the light of His self-realization, who is able to destroy the deep darkness of ignorance, and is omniscient, He is a Parama Guru.
(Slokam from Guru-Gita – Uttarkhandam, Skandha Puraana)
Is this not a befitting description of Periva?
Jay Jaya Sankara Hara Hara Sankara
