PRAYER
स तन्मयो हामृत ईशसंस्थो ज्ञः सर्वगो भुवनस्यास्य गोप्ता। य ईशेऽस्य जगतो नित्यमेव नान्यो हेतुर्विद्यत ईशनाय ॥ यो ब्रह्माणं विदधाति पूर्व यो वै वेदांश्च प्रहिणोति तस्मै। तं ह देवं आत्मबुद्धिप्रकाशं मुमुक्षुवै शरणमहं प्रपद्ये ॥ "He is the Soul of the Universe ; He is immortal;
His is the Rulership; He is the All-knowing, the All-pervading, the Protector of the Universe, the Eternal Ruler. None else is there efficient
to govern the World eternally. "He Who at the beginning of creation projected
Brahmâ (i.e., the universal consciousness), and Who delivered the Vedas unto him-seeking liberation I go for refuge unto that Effulgent One, Whose light turns the understanding towards the Atman."-Svetûsvatara-Upanishad, VI. 17, 18.
