Om, I bow to the lotus feet of the Gurus who reveal the bliss of the true Self through their knowledge. I
(To them) who have made the desert of worldly existence, filled with the poison of illusion, a place of peace and liberation. II

I bow down to Patanjali, who has the form of a man with extended arms, holding a conch, a discus, and a sword, who has a thousand heads and is white (pure). Om.
