| Universal Prayers - From Vedas |
| Wealth, noble ancestry, physical beauty, asceticism, scriptural knowledge, power, energy, courage, might, diligence, prudence and Yogic practice - all these I deem of no avail in the worship of the suprem Being. For, indeed, the almighty Lord is pleased with the devotee not for anything else but for his great devotion to Him. |

Om gudha - gulphayai namah. Salutations to Her whose ankles are well-filled and therefore without protrusion. |
 |
| Sivananda Lahari - Of Sri Sankaracarya |
| O Kingly swan of my mind! Why do you wander in the muddy tanks of worldliness, fit only for mean creatures? Go unto the pure and perpetual lake of divine contemplation, having eternal bliss for its waters, the minds of heavenly sages for its lotus flowers, the holy men as the birds resorting to itm sins as the dirt it clenses away, and virtuous disposition as the fragrance it emits. |
 |
| Siva Sahasranama Stotram |
The Terrible Austerity. Om Ghoratapase namah Siva being totally immersed in His Spiritual Excellence is His terrible austerity. |
