Chapter 10 • Verse 31

पवनः पवतामस्मि रामः शस्त्रभृतामहम्। झषाणां मकरश्चास्मि स्रोतसामस्मि जाह्नवी॥

pavanaḥ pavatām asmi rāmaḥ śhastra-bhṛitām aham jhaṣhāṇāṁ makaraśh chāsmi srotasām asmi jāhnavī

Meaning

Of purifiers, I am the wind; of warriors, I am Rama; of fish, the shark; of rivers, the Ganges.

Among purifiers, wind that clears all; among weapon-wielders, Rama the ideal warrior-king; among fish, the mighty shark; among rivers, the sacred Ganges. Purification, righteous strength, power in depths, and sacred flow — all divine.

Strength Reflection

"Purification, righteous strength, and sacred flow all manifest the Divine."

Devotional Surrender

Lord, purify me like wind, strengthen me like Rama, carry me like the Ganges.
