Swami Ramsukhdas (Hindi)
।।11.37।। हे महात्मन् ! गुरुओंके भी गुरु और ब्रह्माके भी आदिकर्ता आपके लिये (वे सिद्धगण) नमस्कार क्यों नहीं करें? क्योंकि हे अनन्त ! हे देवेश ! हे जगन्निवास ! आप अक्षरस्वरूप हैं; आप सत् भी हैं, असत् भी हैं, और सत्-असत् से पर भी जो कुछ है, वह भी आप ही हैं।
Swami Tejomayananda (Hindi)
।।11.37।। हे महात्मन् ! ब्रह्मा के भी आदि कर्ता और सबसे श्रेष्ठ आपके लिए वे कैसे नमस्कार नहीं करें? (क्योंकि) हे अनन्त! हे देवेश! हे जगन्निवास! जो सत् असत् और इन दोनों से परे अक्षरतत्त्व है, वह आप ही हैं।।
Swami Adidevananda (English)
(a) And why should they not, O Mahatma, bow down to You who are great, being the first Creator, even of Brahma?
(b) O Infinite, Lord of gods, O You who have the universe as Your abode! You are the imperishable individual self, the existent and the non-existent, and that which is beyond both.
Swami Gambirananda (English)
And why should they not bow down to You, O exalted One, who are greater than all and who are the first Creator even of Brahma! O infinite One, supreme God, Abode of the Universe, You are the Immutable, being and non-being, and that which is Transcendental.
Swami Sivananda (English)
And why should they not, O great Soul, bow to Thee Who art greater than all else, the primal cause even of the Creator (Brahma), O Infinite Being, O Lord of the gods, O Abode of the universe; Thou art the imperishable, the Being, the non-being, and That which is supreme—that which is beyond the Being and the non-being.
Dr. S. Sankaranarayan (English)
O Mighty One! Why should they not bow down to You, the Primal Creator, Who is greater than even Brahma (personal god)? O Endless One, O Lord of gods, O Abode of the universe! You are unalterable, existent, non-existent, and also that which is beyond both.
Shri Purohit Swami (English)
How else should they do? O Supreme Self, greater than the powers of creation, the first cause, infinite, the Lord of Lords, the home of the universe, imperishable, being and non-being, yet transcending both.
