त्वमेव सर्वं त्वयि देव सर्वं स्तोता स्तुतिः स्तव्य इह त्वमेव । ईश त्वयाऽवास्यमिदं हि सर्वं नमोस्तु भूयोपि नमो नमस्ते
tvameva sarvaṃ tvayi deva sarvaṃ stotā stutiḥ stavya iha tvameva | īśa tvayā'vāsyamidaṃ hi sarvaṃ namostu bhūyopi namo namaste
ଆପଣେ ହିଁ ସର୍ବ; ହେ ଦେବ, ସର୍ବ କିଛି ଆପଣଙ୍କ ମଧ୍ୟରେ ଅବସ୍ଥିତ। ଏଠାରେ ସ୍ତୋତା, ସ୍ତୁତି ଓ ସ୍ତବ୍ୟ—ସବୁ ଆପଣେ ହିଁ। ହେ ଈଶ! ଏହି ସମଗ୍ର ଜଗତ ଆପଣଙ୍କ ଦ୍ୱାରା ଆବୃତ ଓ ବ୍ୟାପ୍ତ। ଆପଣଙ୍କୁ ପୁନଃପୁନଃ ନମସ୍କାର—ନମୋ ନମଃ।
Devas (gods), concluding the hymn
Tirtha: Kāśī
Type: kshetra
Listener: Ṛṣis / audience of Kāśī-māhātmya
Scene: Devas chant a unified-pervasion hymn; the world appears as a garment of the Lord—rivers, ghats, temples, beings all within a single divine aura; repeated namas forms a rhythmic visual cadence.
FAQs

Repeated salutation and praise (namas, stuti) are implied as devotional practice.
