A Hymn by Shankara


0 Lord, dweller within

You are the light

In the heart's lotus.

Om is your very self,

Om, holiest word,

Seed and source of the scriptures.

Logic cannot discover

You, Lord, but the yogis

Know you in meditation.

In you are all God's faces,

His forms and aspects,

In you also

We find the guru.

In every heart you are

And if but once, only,

A man will open

His mind to receive you

Truly that man

Is free forever.
