गायत्री वा इदं सर्वं भूतं यद् इदम् किञ्च । वाग् वै गायत्री । वाग् वा इदं सर्वं भूतं गायति च त्रायते च
gāyatrī vā idaṃ sarvaṃ bhūtaṃ yad idam kiñca | vāg vai gāyatrī | vāg vā idaṃ sarvaṃ bhūtaṃ gāyati ca trāyate ca
The Gâyatrî (verse) is everything whatsoever here exists. Gâyatrî indeed is speech, for speech sings forth (gâya-ti) and protects (trâya-te) everything that here exists.
tāvān asya mahimā tato jyāyāṃś ca puruṣaḥ | pādo 'sya sarvā bhūtāni tripād asyāmṛtaṃ divīti
'Such is the greatness of it (of Brahman, under the disguise of Gâyatrî); greater than it is the Person (purusha). His feet are all things. The immortal with three feet is in heaven (i.e. in himself).'
अयं वाव स यो ऽयम् अन्तर्हृदय आकाशः । तद् एतत् पूर्णम् अप्रवर्ति । पूर्णम् अप्रवर्तिनीं श्रियं लभते य एवं वेद
ayaṃ vāva sa yo 'yam antarhṛdaya ākāśaḥ | tad etat pūrṇam apravarti | pūrṇam apravartinīṃ śriyaṃ labhate ya evaṃ veda
That is the ether within the heart. That ether in the heart (as Brahman) is omnipresent and unchanging. He who knows this obtains omnipresent and unchangeable happiness.
