Om

Vanda gurunam charanaravinde
sandarshita svatma sukhavabodhe
nih shreyase jangalikayamane
samsara halahala mohashantyai

Abahu purushakaram
shankhachakrasi dharinam
sahasra shirasam shetam
pranamami patanjalim

Om

"I bow to the lotus feet of the supreme teacher
who reveals the happiness of self-realization;
who like the jungle doctor removes the delusion
caused byt the great poison of conditioned existence
To Pantanjali, who (representing the serpent of infinity)
has thousands of white radiant heads
who in his human form holds a conch (representing sound,
a discus (representing light), and a sword (representing discrimination,
I prostrate."
