I offer my prostrations with great devotion to the feet (or Swaroopa) of Sri Hari, the Supreme Being, who is the master of the Universe, whose essence is of the nature of Bliss, which is
respectfully prostrated to by Gods headed by Brahma (Chathurmukha), Indra etc. His form is the greatest (superlative in all respects), indestructible, and beyond the constraints
imposed by nature and It sprinkles the divine nectar of Bliss of the Moksha (on souls which attain liberation).

I offer .. Indra etc. He is of the colour of the interior of the Blue Lotus (Nilothpala), He is full of auspicious qualities and He gives Mithya Jnana (wrong knowledge) to evil persons (who
argue for untrue philosophical systems).
(The souls get knowledge only with the will and pleasure of the Inner controller, God, through the Tatvabhimani devathas according to their innate worth and past deeds. Thus our getting
true knowledge is also by the grace of God).

gods. The poet exclaims Aho! - what a wonder, at this. (Though only Aishwarya and Vimukthi are specfically mentioned here all other attributes and gifts to the souls such as their very
existence, creation, knowledge, devotion and liberation etc are exclusively by God). The exclamation is indicative of admiration and devotion.
