I bow down to the universal teacher

who is absolute truth pure consciousness and bliss, who is beyond all differences,

who is ever full without attributes and formless, who is all pervading and ever centered in the self.

Lead us from the unreality to reality

Lead us from darkness to light

Lead us from death to immortality
