आदिबीजाय सर्वेषां चिद्रूपाय पराय च ॥ ब्रह्मणे निर्विकाराय प्रकृतेः पुरुषस्य च ॥३७॥

य इदं प्रतिपंच्येदं येनेदं विचकास्ति हि ॥ यस्मादिदं यतश्चेदं यस्येदं त्वं च यत्नतः ॥३८॥

Obeisance to Thee who createst this world, by whom this is illuminated, from whom this originated, by whom this is sustained, to whom this belongs and by whom everything is kept under control.

योस्मात्परस्माच्च परो निर्विकारी महाप्रभुः ॥ ईक्षते यस्स्वात्मनीदं तं नताः स्म स्वयंभुवम् ॥ ३९ ॥

We bow to that self-born deity who is beyond this and everything that is great, who is the undepraved great lord, who sees these within Himself.

अविद्धदृक् परः साक्षी सर्वात्मा ऽनेकरूपधृक् ॥ आत्मभूतः परब्रह्म तपंतं शरणं गताः ॥ 2-2-15-४० ॥

We have sought refuge at His feet who is the supreme Brahman, who is the soul of everyone, who is the greatest witness with unbarred vision and who assumes various forms.
