The Yoga of Divine Glories

Sanskrit Verse

Ayudhanam aham vajram dhenunam asmi kamadhuk, prajanas casmi kandarpah sarpanam asmi vasukih

Translation & Meaning

Among weapons I am the thunderbolt; among cows I am the wish-fulfilling Kamadhenu; among causes for procreation I am Kandarpa (god of love); and among serpents I am Vasuki. The thunderbolt (Indra's weapon) represents irresistible divine power, while Kamadhenu embodies the divine as unlimited abundance and nourishment.

Key Teachings

  • Divine power is both creative (Kandarpa) and protective (thunderbolt)
  • Kamadhenu represents the divine as unlimited abundance and wish-fulfilment
  • Even the impulse toward creation is a sacred expression of divine will
