Oh Paaduka! What a great achievement for You! You bring to the doors

of ordinary men, to be visible to these physical eyes, in all His

splendour to be palpable, the GREAT LORD, WHOM the

Yogis, with a clear and clean mind, perfected by the five Yama

exercises (Brahmacharyam, Ahimsa, truthfulness, non-stealing, and non-

accumulation of wealth) and the five Niyama exercises

(Veda-abhyasa, pure habits, contentment, tapas of observing fast

etc., and god-remembrance) are unable to comprehend

and WHOSE greatness is attempted to catch by the Vedas but only as a

handful in magnitude-only to that extent the Vedas could see His

greatness. This You do of Your own accord.

 

Namo Narayana,
