Lord Vishnu

kāyena vācā

(Kayena Vacha in English (IAST))

Also known as kayena vaca manasendriyairva

This beautiful shloka captures the essence of Surrender. It recognises that all actions - physical, verbal, mental, and instinctive - whether done consciously or unconsciously, belong to the divine. The opening line, "kāyena vācā manasendriyairvā," refers to actions performed through the body (kāya), speech (vācā), mind (manas), and senses (indriyaiḥ). These encompass all forms of human activity, from physical deeds to verbal expressions, mental thoughts, and sensory experiences.

kāyena vācā manasendriyairvā
buddhyātmanā vā prakṛteḥ svabhāvāt
karomi yadyat sakalaṃ parasmai
nārāyaṇāyeti samarpayāmi
