| Purani
and Purna
are names of the Divine Mother meaning She who
is always full and whole, perfect and infinite, who never decays.
She is the great Goddess who controls the universe and all beings
are her children. We can observe wholeness in all Her creation from
the seeds in nature to newborn beings. She is whole, the embodiment
of perfection and She gives rise to all in existence, thus She is
the origin of all and that too must be perfect. It is up to us to
realize this perfection, which is in ourselves and all life. According
to Sanatana Dharma, that which is whole is auspicious and of good
fortune. One who bears this name needs to live up to this ultimate
ideal of perfection and strive to embody it at all times in all
that they do, see, hear and speak.
Purnamadah purnamidam purnat purnamudachyate
Purnasya purnamadaya purnamevavashishyate
Om Shantih Shantih Shantihi
"The infinite whole is entirely That, the infinite whole is
entirely This
From the infinite Whole the visible yet infinite whole universe
was born
The infinite remains the same even though the infinite universe
was born there from
Om, let there be peace, peace, peace"
