Divine Completeness · All You Seek in One

ॐ

गतिर्भर्ता प्रभुः साक्षी निवासः शरणं सुहृत् । प्रभवः प्रलयः स्थानं निधानं बीजमव्ययम् ॥

gatir bhartā prabhuḥ sākṣī nivāsaḥ śaraṇaṁ suhṛt, prabhavaḥ pralayaḥ sthānaṁ nidhānaṁ bījam avyayam.

Meaning

"I am the goal, the sustainer, the master, the witness, the abode, the refuge, and the friend; I am the origin, the dissolution, the foundation, the resting place, and the imperishable seed."

Explanation

Whatever you're searching for—a goal, a friend, a refuge—the divine already holds all of those roles at once.
