Tvam ādi-devaḥ puruṣhaḥ purāṇas tvam asya vishvasya paraṁ nidhānam, vettāsi vedyaṁ cha paraṁ cha dhāma tvayā tataṁ vishvam ananta-rūpa

You are the first God, the ancient person. You are the supreme resting place of the universe. You are the knower and the known, the supreme abode. O infinite form, the universe is pervaded by You.

  • God is both the knower and the object of all knowledge
  • The entire universe rests in and is pervaded by God
  • The ancient and the present are united in the divine
