अतीन्द्रियं विश्वभुजं जितारिं गुणत्रयातीतमजं निरीहम् । तमोमयं वेदमयं चिदंशं प्रजापतीशं पुरुहूतमिन्द्रम् । अनागतैकध्वनिरूपमाद्यं ध्यायंति यं योगविदो यतीन्द्राः
atīndriyaṃ viśvabhujaṃ jitāriṃ guṇatrayātītamajaṃ nirīham | tamomayaṃ vedamayaṃ cidaṃśaṃ prajāpatīśaṃ puruhūtamindram | anāgataikadhvanirūpamādyaṃ dhyāyaṃti yaṃ yogavido yatīndrāḥ
Jenseits der Sinne, das All umfassend, Bezwinger der Feinde; jenseits der drei Guṇas, ungeboren und ohne Tun—dunkel wie das Geheimnis und doch aus dem Veda gewoben, ein Anteil reinen Bewusstseins; Herr der Prajāpatis, der vielangerufene „Indra“; der Uranfängliche, dessen Gestalt der eine ungeborene Klang des Unmanifesten ist—Ihn schauen die Kenner des Yoga, die erhabensten Asketen, in Meditation.
A devotee/narrator within Prabhāsakṣetra-māhātmya (hymnic praise; exact speaker not stated in the snippet)
Tirtha: Prabhāsa-kṣetra (Somnātha)
Type: kshetra
Scene: Aniconic-to-iconic synthesis: the liṅga or Rudra-form radiates a cosmic embrace, while subtle motifs show the three guṇas receding; a single primordial sound-wave (ekadhvani) emanates into the universe as yogins meditate in stillness.
The Lord transcends senses and guṇas and is realized by yogic meditation as the primordial conscious reality and inner sound.
Prabhāsakṣetra, where the hymn frames Śiva as the supreme object of yogic contemplation.
Meditation (dhyāna) by yogic adepts is implied; no external ritual like snāna or dāna is specified in this verse.
