Sanskrit Verse

Naham prakashahah sarvasya yoga-maya-samavritah, mudho 'yam nabhijanati loko mam ajam avyayam

Translation & Meaning

Key Teachings

  • Yoga-maya is the divine veil that conceals God from casual seekers
  • God's eternal, unborn nature is hidden from those in delusion
  • Spiritual purification is necessary to perceive the Divine directly
