Ganapati Upanishad (Excerpt)

Protect me

Protect the one who Describes you

Protect all who hear about your characteristics

Protect me & the disciples who are under tutelage

Protect me from the obstacles 

 From the east (Similarly)

 Protect me from the West,

 From the North

From the South

Protect me from above & below

Protect me from all directions

It is a mistake to consider any belief more liberated than another. It is the possibility of change which is important. Every new form of liberation is destined to eventually become another form of enslavement for most of its adherents. There is no freedom from duality on this plane of existence, but one may at least aspire to the choice of duality.
