Salutations unto Lord Daksinamürti who is the source of all-knowledge and the source of all blessing. As the source of all-knowledge, he faces the south. The Lord is everywhere, but the one who wants release from samsara faces the Lord in the north. The south stands for samsara it is Lord Yama’s place. What is the significance of the southern direction? The north attracts, and it stands for moksha. He is the Lord who is facing the south, daksinn-dik-abhi-mukha murtih. Therefore, Isvara who is daksina as well as amürti is Daksinamürti.ĭaksina also means the southern direction. With maya-sakti Isvara is daksinah, the one who has the capacity to be the creator and sustainer, and also the one who can take back the whole creation into himself. Therefore, in relating to the Lord as Bhagavan, I am invoking the grace of Bhagavan.Īmürtih is the one who is formless and who is the truth of everything. Not only do I seek moksa, knowledge, I also seek blessings for achieving whatever I need to achieve in life. The word Bhagavan, by which I invoke the Lord, is everything that I seek. Namah, my salutations, to the Lord, Bhagavan, the one who has bhaga, the six-fold glories: aisvarya, overlordship Sri, wealth and health virya, strength yasas, fame jnana, knowledge, and vairagya, freedom from a sense of want.
