Tap any word for its meaning.

Maṅgalam

A benedictory verse, standing outside the numbered sequence.

In plain words

That in which this whole world steadily exists, that to which all of it belongs, that from which this entire world arises, that for the sake of which all these are, that by which all this world springs up, that which all this actually is: that alone is the existing substance, the Reality that is. Let us hold that Svarūpa, which alone is real, in the Heart.

Word for word

In what this whole world steadily abides, of what all [is], from what this entire world rises, and for the sake of what all these are, by what this whole earth rises, whatever all this is: that itself is the substance that is. Let us hold that Svarūpa, which is real, in the Heart.
