Trayivastu vyastam tisrishu guna-bhinnasu tanushu,ДЄbhavyanam asmin varada ramaniyama ramanim Tavaisvaryam yat taj jagadudaya raksa pralayakrit O Brahman! Do even BrihaspatiвЂ™s praises cause wonder to You, the author of the nectar like sweet Vedas? 0 destroyer of the three cities, the thought that by praising Your glories I shall purify my speech has prompted me to undertake this work. Punam ityartheвЂ™smin puramathana buddhir vyavasita. Mama tvetam vanim guna kathana punyena bhavatah Tava brahman kim vag api suraguror vismaya padam, Madhu sphita vacah paramam amritam nirmitavatas Who can properly praise that which even the Vedas describe with trepidation, by means ofвЂ™ вЂneti-neti / not this, not thisвЂ™? How many qualities does He possess? By whom can He be perceived? Yet whose mind and speech do not turn to the form later taken by Him (saguna) (2) Your greatness is beyond the reach of mind and speech. Pade tvarvacine patati na manah kasya na vacah. Sa kasya stotavyah katividha gunah kasya vishayah

(1)ДЄtitah panthanam tava ca mahima vanmanasayorДЄtad vyavrttya yam cakita mabhi dhatte shrutirapi, If no one can be blamed when they praise You according to their intellectual powers, then my attempt to compose a hymn cannot be reproached. If it is unseemly to praise You when ignorant of the extent ofвЂ™ Your greatness, then even the praises of Brahma and others are inadequate. Mamapyeshah stotre hara nirapavadah parikarah Stutir brahma dina mapitadava sannastvayi girah,ДЄtha vacyah sarvah svamati parina mavadhi grinan

вЂњIt doesnвЂ™t matter where it begins or where it ends, till I reach there, I simply keep going.вЂќ Unless a person has this attitude and strength within himself, the spiritual path is out of question.Mahimnah param te parama vidusho yadyasadrishi Not knowing where the end is, simply keep going. If you want to progress on the path of yoga, this is needed. You canвЂ™t believe that thousands of years of ago, people went into these mountains when there were no roads, automobiles or maps of where the mountain begins and where it ends. This was an opportunity to simply be dwarfed вЂ“ if not dissolved, at least to be dwarfed. The purpose of coming to the Himalayas is not to achieve something. When you travel to the Himalayas, you will wonder how anyone could have walked through this. I have traveled to many places but in this 25-kilometer drive, there are no words to describe how the mountains are. From Govind Ghat to Badri, that 25-kilometer drive is probably the most incredible drive you can have anywhere in the world. The town is not very well kept, but if you look around at the rest of it, it is incredibly beautiful. Because itвЂ™s your beloved baby, I cannot touch it.вЂќ Another was to just find another way and go. Shiva had two options: one was to burn up everything in front of him. You brought the child into the house and now he has locked the door.вЂќ Parvati said, вЂњWhat shall we do?вЂќ вЂњWho has closed the door?вЂќ Shiva said, вЂњI told you, donвЂ™t pick up this child. When they came back, they found the doors were locked from the inside. Parvati comforted and fed the child, left him at home and went with Shiva for a bath in the nearby hot water springs. Shiva knew the consequence of this but he said, вЂњOkay, letвЂ™s see what happens.вЂќ The child was very comfortable, sitting on her lap, looking very gleefully at Shiva. This is not a child.вЂќ But Parvati said, вЂњNothing doing! The mother in me will not allow me to let the child be like this,вЂќ and she took the baby into the house. Why does he land up at our doorstep by himself? There is no one around, no footprints of parents in the snow.

Shiva said, вЂњI told you, donвЂ™t pick up this child.
