Verse 144

Tap any word for its meaning.

। ॥ १४४ ॥

In plain words

The grime is rinsed off, and the fear with it — that is what I am. The net of worldly suffering is undone in the heart — that is what I am. And every dealing of the world, neatly assembled out of the letters from a to kṣa, has its root in me. In me alone.

Close to the Sanskrit

I am one whose impurity and fear have been washed away; I am one whose heart has had the net of worldly affliction destroyed; I alone am the root of the manifold dealings finely constructed out of the letters that begin with a and end with kṣa.
