| Sivananda Lahari - Of Sri Sankaracarya |
| O moon-crested One! By Thy grace that primordial nescience (avidya) lodged in my heart has disappeared, and the cherished divine knowledge has dawned. Always, in ecstatic thought, I worship Thy lotus feet, which are capable of conferring what is good, and which constitute the chalice of salvation. |

The Universal Seer. Om visalakshaya namah Nothing escapes His ken. |

| Quotations from Sri Aurobindo and the Mother (Sri Aurobindo Ashram, Pondicherry) |
| We surrender to Thee this evening all that is artificial and false, all that Pretends and imitates. Let it disappear with the year that is at an end. May only what is perfectly true, sincere, straight and pure subsist in the year that is beginning. |
