Shvetashvatara Upanishad 2.5Famous
beginner
युजे वां ब्रह्म पूर्व्यं नमोभिर्वि श्लोक एतु पथ्येव सूरेः। शृण्वन्ति विश्वे अमृतस्य पुत्राः आ ये धामानि दिव्यानि तस्थुः॥
yuje vāṃ brahma pūrvyaṃ namobhirvi śloka etu pathyeva sūreḥ | śṛṇvanti viśve amṛtasya putrāḥ ā ye dhāmāni divyāni tasthuḥ ||
"I join with you the ancient Brahman with salutations. May my hymn go forth like the sun on its path. All the sons of immortality hear - those who have attained celestial abodes."
What This Means:
I unite with the ancient Brahman through reverence. May this teaching spread like the sun's rays. The sons of immortality in heaven hear it.
Going Deeper:
The famous phrase "amritasya putrah" (sons of immortality) appears here. All beings are inherently divine, children of the immortal.
How To Apply This:
Know yourself as a child of immortality. You are not a sinner seeking salvation but a divine being remembering your nature.
