ப்ராதஃஸ்மரண ஸ்தோத்ரம்

At dawn, I contemplate the Reality of the Self that shines within my heart—the embodiment of Existence, Consciousness, and Bliss, the ultimate destination of the enlightened sages, and the Fourth state beyond the three states of consciousness. That Supreme Brahman is ever-aware of the states of waking, dreaming, and deep sleep; I am that eternal, indivisible Brahman, and not a mere collection of material elements.

At dawn, I worship the One who is beyond the reach of mind and speech, by whose grace all words derive their power to manifest. The Vedas describe Him by the method of negation—"neti, neti" (not this, not this)—and sages proclaim Him to be the Primeval Lord, the Unborn, the Immutable, and the Supreme Divine.

At dawn, I bow to Him who transcends all darkness and shines with the brilliance of the sun, the Perfect and Eternal State known as the Supreme Person. Within Him, who assumes all forms, this entire universe appears as a reality, just as a rope appears as a snake in the darkness. Whoever recites these three sacred verses, which are the ornament of the three worlds, at the break of dawn, shall attain the Supreme Abode.
