O Lord of gods , You are outside the limits of space, time and material. You are the abode in which the universe resides.

You are the imperishable - the one that does not wear out. You are the Essence of the Self, as described in कठ उपनिशत् [kaTha upanizat] : ‘The form of knowledge that is not born and does not die’. In other scriptures too, the Self is described as the one who does not perish.

You are existence, the outcome of creation. You are non-existence too, the state of the universe prior to creation. You are the matter that’s present as the origin, before creation. You are also the outcome of creation. This outcome is the universe that can be classified using names, forms and shapes. Matter was present as its origin, when nothing could be distinguished in this way.

Whatever is beyond this material world, along with every Self that’s in this material world - they are You. You are the essence of all that’s beyond the material world too. In this way, You are the origin of all powers . You are the person without a beginning.

You are the basis on which this universe rests. By having the universe as Your body , You are its ultimate basis.

In this way, You are indeed the One who is addressed by all words and powers like the sun and the wind. This is stated next-
