Verse 4

¹So resolved in his understanding, settling his mind in the heart, he recited the highest of recitations, the one he had been taught in an earlier birth. ²Om. Salutation to that Bhagavan from whom comes all this, whose stuff is awareness. On the Person, the first seed, the supreme Lord, let us set our thought. ³He in whom this is, and from whom this is, and by whom this is, and who is this himself; who is beyond this and beyond what lies past it: to him, the self-born, I go for refuge. ⁴He in whose own self this is laid down by his own maya, at one time showing forth and at another hidden away, whose seeing is unpierced, who as witness sees them both: may he, whose root is himself, higher than the high, guard me.
