Let us prostrate before Patanjali, an incarnation of Adisesa, whose upper body has a human form, whose arms hold a conch and a disc, and who is crowned by a thousand-headed cobra. Let us prostrate before Lord Adisesa who manifested himself on earth as Patanjali to grace the human race with health and harmony. Let us salute Lord Adisesa of the myriad serpent heads and mouths carrying noxious poisons, discarding which he came to earth as single-headed Patanjali in order to eradicate ignorance and vanquish sorrow. Let us pay our obeisance to Him, repository of all knowledge, amidst his attendant retinue. Let us pray to the Lord whose primordial form shines with pure and white effulgence, pristine in body, a master of yoga who bestows on us his yogic light to enable mankind to rest in the house if the immortal soul. >From: [EMAIL PROTECTED] (Sanskrit Digest) >Reply-To: [EMAIL PROTECTED] >To: [EMAIL PROTECTED] >Subject: Sanskrit Digest V1 #303 >Date: Tue, 21 Jan 2003 14:39:57 -0700 (MST) > >Sanskrit Digest Tuesday, January 21 2003 Volume 01 : Number 303 > > > > Patanjali invocation [Girish Sharma ><[EMAIL PROTECTED]>] > Re: Patanjali invocation [Sai ><[EMAIL PROTECTED]>] > >---------------------------------------------------------------------- > >Date: Sat, 18 Jan 2003 14:14:55 -0800 >From: Girish Sharma <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> >Subject: Patanjali invocation > >Could someone please help me understand two words in an invocation to >Patanjali: "devohii.sa.h" and "vovyaat".

Since this is an invocation, the appropriate way to split 'vovyaat' would be vo + avyaat avyaat = let (him) protect vo/vaH = you all.
