Adṛiṣhṭa-pūrvaṁ hṛiṣhito 'smi dṛiṣhṭvā bhayena cha pravyathitaṁ mano me, tad eva me darshaya deva rūpaṁ prasīda deveśha jagan-nivāsa

I am delighted to have seen what has never been seen before, yet my mind is troubled with fear. O Lord of gods, refuge of the universe, show me that form again. Be gracious.

  • Delight and fear coexist in the genuine divine encounter
  • Even after cosmic vision, the devotee desires return to closeness
  • Asking God to become accessible again
