I came to be before the "gods" -- entities which deal with knowledge. I am also the origin of immortality, i.e. I provide immortality to beings. One who gives me in form of Anna (various information inputs) to those who expect Anna (i.e. "gods"), he protects me, i.e. he gets protected himself in form by me. 228
