Gajendra Moksha Stotram Meaning in English
I meditate upon that Supreme Being from whom this entire universe — which is of the nature of pure consciousness — has emerged. I take refuge in that Self-existent One who is the primordial seed of all beings and the Lord beyond all lords. In whom all this exists, from whom all this comes, by whom all this is pervaded — I surrender to that transcendent One. (The prayer of the Elephant King Gajendra, whose supreme surrender to Vishnu brought divine intervention when no worldly help remained.)
