"We meditate on the transcendental glory of
the Deity Supreme,
who is inside the heart of the earth,
inside the life of the sky,
and inside the soul of the heaven.
May He stimulate and illumine our minds. "

- The Gayatri Mantra

Lead me from the unreal to the Real.

Lead me from darkness unto Light.

Lead me from death to Immortality.

Whatever takes form is false.

Only the formless endures.

 

When you understand

The truth of this teaching,

You will not be born again.

 

For God is infinite,

Within the body and without,

Like a mirror,

And the image in a mirror.

 

As the air is everywhere,

Flowing around a pot

And filling it,

So God is everywhere,

Filling all things

And flowing through them forever.

 

- Ashtavakra Gita 1: 18-20
