Devanagari script

अतीन्द्रियं विश्वभुजं जितारिं गुणत्रयातीतमजं निरीहम् । तमोमयं वेदमयं चिदंशं प्रजापतीशं पुरुहूतमिन्द्रम् । अनागतैकध्वनिरूपमाद्यं ध्यायंति यं योगविदो यतीन्द्राः

Transliteration

atīndriyaṃ viśvabhujaṃ jitāriṃ guṇatrayātītamajaṃ nirīham | tamomayaṃ vedamayaṃ cidaṃśaṃ prajāpatīśaṃ puruhūtamindram | anāgataikadhvanirūpamādyaṃ dhyāyaṃti yaṃ yogavido yatīndrāḥ

Translation

ผู้เหนือประสาทสัมผัส โอบอุ้มจักรวาล พิชิตศัตรู; ผู้เหนือไตรคุณะ ไม่เกิดและไร้การกระทำ—ดุจความมืดอันลี้ลับแต่เป็นเวทมยะ เป็นส่วนแห่งจิตสำนึกบริสุทธิ์; เป็นเจ้าแห่งปรชาปติ เป็น ‘อินทร’ ผู้ถูกอัญเชิญเนืองนิตย์; เป็นปฐมกาล ผู้มีรูปเป็นเสียงเดียวอันไม่เกิดของอวิยักตะ—ท่านนั้นแลที่ปราชญ์โยคะและฤๅษีผู้ยิ่งใหญ่เพ่งฌาน
