唵!此為無窮That is infinite (Atman), and this (universe) is infinite.
The infinite proceeds from the infinite.
(Then) taking the infinitude from the infinite (universe),
It remains as the infinite (Brahman) alone. [2]
神格是全然的完美與完整,
神性的至高無上,創造出完整的世界;
完整的世界也源自神的完整,只因為神即是完美無暇,
即便人的成就來自神的降賜,祂依然致力維持世界的平衡。
Om! Peace! Peace! Peace![3]

May the supremely rich (or all-knowing) Pusa (god of the earth)
Be propitious to us;

Be well disposed towards us;

May peace be in the Whole Universe.
And may there always exist in all peace and peace alone.
Om peace, peace and peace to us and all beings!
