अनात्मनः तेन हि तृप्तिरस्ति त्वमात्मना य आत्मानमवीक्ष तृप्तः।
मामात्मभावं नयसे न यावत् तृप्तिः कुतस्ते भवतीह तावत्॥

anātmanaḥ tena hi tṛptirasti tvamātmanā ya ātmānamavīkṣa tṛptaḥ,
māmātmabhāvaṁ nayase na yāvat tṛptiḥ kutaste bhavatīha tāvat.

You, who are satisfied without having beheld the self/Self, this satisfaction is without that self/Self. As long as you do not realise me as yourself, till then where is your satisfaction possible here?

Prayer

Ô Toi que je ne puis comprehendre, dans le silence de la plus pure dévotion je t'adore.
(Prières et Meditation, p. 31)

O Thou whom I cannot understand, in the silence of the purest devotion I adore Thee.

The Mother, Prayers and Meditations: August 16, 1913

पृथ्वी रेणुरणुः पयांसि कणिकाः फल्गुः स्फुलिङ्गो लघु-
स्तेजो निःश्वसनं मरुत्तनुतरं रन्ध्र सुसूक्ष्म नमः।
क्षुद्रा रुद्रपितामहप्रभृतयः कीटाः समस्ताः सुरा
दृष्टा यत्र स तारको विजयते श्रीपादधूलीकणः ॥१९

pṛthvī reṇuraṇuḥ payāṁsi kaṇikāḥ phalguḥ sphuliṅgo laghu-
stejo niḥśvasanaṁ maruttanutaraṁ randhraṁ susūkṣmaṁ nabhaḥ,
kṣudrā rudrapitāmahaprabhṛtayaḥ kītāḥ samastāḥ surā
dṛṣṭā yatra sa tārako vijayate śrīpādadhūlīkaṇaḥ.19

The feet whose dust-particle makes the earth look like a little particle of dust, Water seems to be just a small drop, Fire seems to be an insignificantly small spark, Wind seems to be a soft breath. Sky looks a minute hole, Gods like Siva, Brahma etc. seem like the smallest of insects, Victory be to the dust-particle of those beautiful feet.

Mukundamalastotram 19

या ते रुद्र शिवा तनूरघोरा पापनाशिनी।
तया नस्तन्वा शंतमया गिरिशन्ताभिचाकशत्॥८॥

yā te rudra śivā tanūraghorā pāpanāśinī,
tayā nastanvā śantamayā giriśantābhicākaśat.8

That thy body, O terrible One, which is fair and full of kindness and destroyeth sin, not thy shape of terror, in that thy body full of peace, O mountaineer, thou art wont to be seen among our folk.

Nilarudra Upanishad 1.8

Translation by Sri Aurobindo
Sri Aurobindo, Kena and Other Upanishads: Nila Rudra Upanishad

ततः परं ब्रह्म परं बृहन्तं यथानिकायं सर्वभूतेषु गूढम् ॥

tataḥ paraṁ brahma paraṁ bṛhantaṁ yathānikāyaṁ sarvabhūteṣu gūḍham,

Thereafter, the great and Supreme Brahman is concealed in all beings in accordance with the difference in their bodies.

तस्मात् त्वमेव मम शरणम्

tasmāt tvameva mama śaraṇam

Therefore Thou art alone my refuge.

विश्वस्यैकं परिवेष्टितारमीशं तं ज्ञात्वाऽमृता भवन्ति ॥६॥

viśvasyaikaṁ pariveṣṭitāramīśaṁ taṁ jñātvā’ mṛtā bhavanti.

Knowing the One, the Controller of the inner and outer movements of the beings, who pervades the universe, Immortality can be attained.

For that Thou art my refuge.

vande sūryaśaśāṅkavahninayanaṁ vande mukundapriyam,
vande bhaktajanāśrayañca varadaṁ vande śivaṁ śankaram. 15
