mpu:pm [Mantra Pushpam]

Introduction:
The Stanzas in Mantra Pushpam are based on the truth of the
creation. It says that from the Atman or the Self emerged the sky. From the
sky came air. From the air came fire. From the Fire came Water. And from
the Water emerged the Earth. The source of all the elements is the Atman
itself.
