Among the purifiers, I am the wind; among the warriors, I am Rama; among the fishes, I am the shark; among the streams, I am the Ganga.

Shri Purohit Swami

पवित्र करनेवालोंमें वायु और शास्त्रधारियोंमें राम मैं हूँ। जल-जन्तुओंमें मगर मैं हूँ। बहनेवाले स्त्रोतोंमें गङ्गाजी मैं हूँ।

Swami Ramsukhdas

मैं पवित्र करने वालों में वायु हूँ और शस्त्रधारियों में राम हूँ; तथा मत्स्यों (जलचरों) में मैं मगरमच्छ और नदियों में मैं गंगा हूँ।

Swami Tejomayananda
