A Prayer To Gommateshwar Bahubali His eyes are like lily petals, his face fair as the moon and nose more attractive than the champak flower; so I bow in obeisance to Bhagwaan Gommateshwar. He is shielded by purity, cheeks pure as water, his ears hang gracefully to his shoulders, and his strong arms, long like an elephants tusks; so I bow in obeisance to Bhagwaan Gommateshwar. His neck surpasses the conch in beauty, his shoulders wide as the Himalayas, his waist firm and spectacular; so I bow in obeisance to Bhagwaan Gommateshwar. His presence atop the Vindhyas is the acme of all that is excellent, like the full moon that gives joy to the world; so I bow in obeisance to Bhagwaan Gommateshwar. Creepers climb on his body, which is like a wish yielding tree for all aspirants; his auspicious feet adored by the heavenly beings; so I bow in obeisance to Bhagwaan Gommateshwar. He is naked and beyond fear pure of mind, he has no use for clothes; and pays no heed to the coiled snakes; so I bow in obeisance to Bhagwaan Gommateshwar. He looks not at the outside world; this reflects purity of perception; he has conquered all passions and desires by defeating his brother, Bharat, the supreme ruler; so I bow in obeisance to Bhagwaan Gommateshwar. Unhindered by temporal possessions, imperturbable equanimity, banishing false pride and avarice he fasted for a year and more, conquering hunger; so I bow in obeisance to Bhagwaan Gommateshwar.
