संपूर्णमेवममृतस्यकलानिधानं तं गीतकौशलमनन्यरसैः प्रगाये । युक्तं स्वयोगकरणैः परमार्थदृष्टिं विश्वं स पश्यति चराचरमेव नित्यम्
saṃpūrṇamevamamṛtasyakalānidhānaṃ taṃ gītakauśalamananyarasaiḥ pragāye | yuktaṃ svayogakaraṇaiḥ paramārthadṛṣṭiṃ viśvaṃ sa paśyati carācarameva nityam
Demikianlah, dengan rasa bhakti yang satu, hendaklah dia menyanyikan Dia—khazanah sempurna amṛta, sari pati keabadian, dan kemahiran tertinggi dalam nyanyian suci. Bersatu dengan disiplin yoga dirinya serta dikurniai pandangan hakikat tertinggi, dia sentiasa melihat seluruh alam—yang bergerak dan yang tidak bergerak—sebagaimana adanya.
