You are the cause of all worlds. Though comprised of the three qualities (guṇas), you are not comprehended as having imperfections, and even Hari (Vishnu), Hara (Shiva), and others do not fully know your boundless nature. You are the ultimate support; this entire universe is merely a part of you. Indeed, you are the primordial (ādyā), supreme, unmanifest nature (prakṛti).
