That great bewilderment grows from ignorance, and he destroys it. Homage to that Dakshinamurti, the Guru whose knowledge nothing obstructs. Tamil explanatory prose: Body, life-breath, senses, intellect, and the void in which these subside: deluded disputants take these very things for themselves, understanding as women, children, the blind and the dull understand. Salutation to that Dakshinamurti, the Guru of knowledge free of delusion, who removes the great delusion born of not knowing the truth.
