| Sivananda Lahari - Of Sri Sankaracarya |
| O destroyer of death! For the destruction of sin and for the attainment of great prosperity (i.e., liberation), I am requested by the tongue to sing Thy praise, by the mind to contemplate on Thee, by the head to prostrate to Thee, by the legs to circumambulate Thee, by the hands to worship Thee, by the eyes to see Thee, and by the ears to hear Thy stories. Direct me to these endeavours, and remind me of them. May I not become speechless (nor lose the powers of any of the organs mentioned above, so that I may practise devotion to Thee without impediment). |
