| Universal Prayers - From Vedas |
| O Thou of boundless forms! Thou art the primal God of gods, the ancient being. Thou art the supreme refuge of the universe. Thou art the knower, and the one to be known. Thou art the supreme goal. By Thee is the universe pervaded. |

| Sri Vishnu Sahasranama Stotram |

|
| Sri Lalita Sahasranama |
Om tatanka - yugali - bhuta - tapan odupa mandalayai namah.
Salutations to Her who has the orbs of the sun and the moon as Her pair of ear pendants. |

| Sivananda Lahari - Of Sri Sankaracarya |
| Lord Siva is like unto a dancing peacock. He is blue-throated even as the peacock. He bears the sky as crest, as the peacock its feathery plume. He has the lord of all serpents as his necklace while the peacock, being the deadly enemy of all serpents, has mastery over them. He is decorated with ornaments, as the peacock is with its ornamental tail. He instructs with the sound Om in blessing those who prostrate, while the peacock utters its cry known as the Keka. He dances in joy, seeing the beautiful young daughter of the mountain (i.e, Parvati, His Consort), while the peacock dances at the sight of the black-coloured clouds coming from the hills (sailasamudhbhavam sysmam ghanarucim). I worship that Siva, the blue-throated one, who thus resembles the peacock and delights to sport in the garden of Vedanta. |

| Siva Sahasranama Stotram |
The High, while seeming Humble.
