Sivananda Lahari - Of Sri Sankaracarya |
Thou alone, O Lord, art capable of giving liberation - the highest of all rewards - to men. Other deities like Vishnu only worship. Thee, occupying the celestial states awarded by Thee. Unlimited is Thy liberality to devotees, and unlimited, too, are my worldly desires. When art Thou, therefore, going to save me with Thy compassionate look? |
