योगासन समये (Yogaasana Samaye):

 

योगेन चित्तस्य पदेन वाचा

मलं शरीरस्य च वैद्यकने ।

यो पाकरोत्तं प्रवरं मुनीनां

पतञ्जलिं प्राञ्जलिरानतो स्मि ।।

Yogena chittasya padena vaachaa

Malam Sharirasya cha vaidya-kenae |

Yo-a-paakarottam pravaram muneenaam

Patanjalim praanjali-raanato-a-smi ||

Meaning:

With joined hands, I stay bowed to Patanjali-the preeminent among the sages, who removed the impurities of the mind by (explaining) yoga, of the speech by (commenting on) grammar and of the body by (expounding) medicine.

 

Subhashitam:

 

तेजः क्षमा धृतिः

शौचमद्रोहो नातिमनिता ।

भवन्ति सम्पदं दैविम्

अभिजातस्य भारत ।।

Tejaha kshamaa dhritiaha

Shauchamadroho naatimanitaa |

Bhavanti sampadam daivim

Abhijaatasya bhaarata ||

Meaning:

Splendor, forgiveness, fortitude, cleanliness, absence of malice and absence of pride; these are the qualities of those endowed with divine virtues, O Arjuna.

 

Amrutvachan:

 

When a man has begun to be ashamed of his ancestors, the end has come. Here I am one of the least of the Hindu race, yet proud of my race, proud of my ancestors. I am proud to call myself a Hindu, I am proud that I am one of your unworthy servants. I am proud that I am countryman of yours. You are the descendants of the sages, you are descendants of the most glorious Rishis that world ever saw.
