Taking away the Whole from the Whole,
The Whole remains,
Om Peace, peace, peace.

Reason for this post- I like the sound when I read this text beautifully written in Sanskrit. I wish to remember it as it is. Not for any sort of religious reasons but for the language, its form and its meaning, just like a poetry.
I need to cross check the English translation with any one who knows both the languages. Soon, I will edit, if anything found erroneous.
