I adore the Lord of the universe bearing the name of Råma, the Chief of Raghuís
line and the crest-jewel of kings, the mine of compassion, the dispeller of all sins,
appearing in human form through His Måyå (deluding potency), the greatest of all gods,
knowable through Vedånta (the Upaniads), constantly worshipped by Brahmå (the
Creator), ›ambhu (Lord ›iva) and ›ea (the serpent-god), the bestower of supreme
peace in the form of final beatitude, placid, eternal, beyond the ordinary means of
cognition, sinless and all-pervading. (1)
