##
I remember in the early morning, the self-effulgent
Atma-Tattwa in the heart, which is Existence-Knowledge-Bliss,
which is the goal of the Parmahamsa, which is the fourth state.
I am that Brahman Who is eternal, attributeless,
Who transcends and is superior to the states of waking,
dreaming and sleeping, I am not the sum total of the
elements.

##
I resort in the early morning to that God of gods,
Who is described as the Unborn, the Imperishable, and
the Foremost, Who is beyond the reach of mind and
speech, by Whose grace all speech is illuminated
and Whom the Vedas describe with statements of
"not this, not this".

##
I bow in the early morning to the eternal state
called Purshottama, who is full, beyond darkness,
brilliant like the sun, in whose secondless Being
this entire universe is apparent like the snake in the rope.

##
One who recites these three sacred verses, which are
the ornaments of the three worlds, in the early
morning shall reach the Supreme State.


The first three verses are in vasantatilakA meter,
and the last in anuShTubh.
