आख्याहि मे को भवानुग्ररूपो

नमोऽस्तु ते देववर प्रसीद |
विज्ञातुमिच्छामि भवन्तमाद्यं
न हि प्रजानामि तव प्रवृत्तिम् || 31||

ākhyāhi me ko bhavān ugra-rūpo
namo ’stu te deva-vara prasīda
vijñātum ichchhāmi bhavantam ādyaṁ
na hi prajānāmi tava pravṛittim

भावार्थ:

मुझे बतलाइए कि आप उग्ररूप वाले कौन हैं? हे देवों में श्रेष्ठ! आपको नमस्कार हो। आप प्रसन्न होइए। आदि पुरुष आपको मैं विशेष रूप से जानना चाहता हूँ क्योंकि मैं आपकी प्रवृत्ति को नहीं जानता॥31॥

Translation

Tell me who you are, so fierce of form. O God of gods, I bow before you; please bestow your mercy on me. You, who existed before all creation, I wish to know who you are, for I do not comprehend your nature and workings.

English Translation Of Sri Shankaracharya’s Sanskrit Commentary By Swami Gambirananda
