pra pūrvagau pūrvajau citrabhānū girā vā śaṃsāmi tapanāvanantau |
divyau suparṇau virajau vimānāvadhikṣiyantau bhuvanāni viśvā || 60 ||
'Ye have existed before the creation! Ye first-born beings, ye are displayed in this wondrous universe of five elements! I desire to obtain you by the help of the knowledge derived from hearing, and of meditation, for ye are Infinite! Ye are the course itself of Nature and intelligent Soul that pervades that course! Ye are birds of beauteous feathers perched on the body that is like to a tree! Ye are without the three common attributes of every soul! Ye are incomparable! Ye, through your spirit in every created thing, pervade the Universe!
