Salutations

Transliteration

 

Yo devo’ gnau yo’ psu yo visvam bhuvanam avivesa

Ya osadhisu yo vanaspatisu tasmai devaya namo namah.

 

Translation

 

We offer our supreme salutations to this divine Being

Who is in fire, in water,

in the plants, in the trees,

and who has entered

and pervaded the whole universe.

 

Comment

 

Fire is aspiration.

Water is consciousness.

A plant is a climbing hope.

A tree is an assuring confidence.

The divine Being is the concealed Breath and revealed of the universe.
