bhayaṁ - abhayaṁ
bhōgē rōgabhayaṁ kulē cyutibhayaṁ vittē nr̥pālādbhayaṁ

śāstrē vādibhayaṁ guṇē khalabhayaṁ kāyē kr̥tāṁtādbhayaṁ
sarvaṁ vastu bhayānvitaṁ bhuvi nr̥ṇāṁ vairāgya mē vābhayam .
- Bhartrihari Vairagya Satakam - 31
bhoge roga bhayam = in the enjoyments there is a fear of falling ill
kule chyuti bhayam = In the high order of society there is a fear of falling off
vitte nrupaalaat bhayam = in wealth there is a fear of government (tax man)
maane dainya bhayam = in honor there is a fear of humiliation
bale ripu bhayam = in power there is a fear of enemy
ruupe jarayaa bhayam = in beauty there is fear of old age
sastre vaadi bhayam = in the sastras there is a fear of opponents
gune khala bhayam = in virtue there is a fear of vicious ones
kaaye krutaantaat bhayam = in the body there is a fear of death (lord yama)
sarvam vastuh bhayaanivtam bhuvihi - all vastus (things) are always come along with some sort of fear in this world
nrunaam vairagyam eva abhayam - for the people "dispassion" - vairagya alone is fearlessness!

mahā māya - mahā lakṣmi
namastēstu mahāmāyē - śrī pīṭhē surapūjitē |
śaṁkhacakragadāhastē - mahālakṣmī rnamōstutē ||
namah te astu mahamaaye sripithe sura pujite
sankha-chakra-gadaa-haste mahalakshmi namah astu te
I bow down to you O "mahamaaya" on sripitha worshiped by the gods!
I bow down to you O "mahalakshmi" holding sankha, chakra and gadaa in your hands!
-- On the occasion of varalakshmi vratam.
Notes:
1. The first bow down to the Divine mother's swarupa devoid of all actions and attributes.
2. The second bow down to the Divine mother's swabhava that controls all the action with three gunas (sankha represents rajo guna of creation; chakra represents satva guna of control; and the gadaa represents tamo guna of transformation. The forth hand holds a "varada mudra" that indicates the surrender!)

As a bath with water daily cleanses the impurities of the body,
in the same way a bath in the waters of srimad bhagavad gita cleanses the impurity called "samsaara" completely!

pekkucaduvulēla? cikkuvādamulēla?
okka manasutōḍa nūrakunna
sarvasiddhuḍaunu, sarvaṁbu tānaunu
viśvadābhirāma! vinura vēma!

Loose English Notes:
pekku chaduvulela? = why to learn different branches of studies?
chikku vaadamulela? = why to engage in complected arguments?
okka manasu toda urakunna = by keeping ONE mind stable without thoughts
sarva siddhudaunu = one will become an achiever (siddha)
sarvambu taanaunu = he will verily become ALL (the soul of everything)
visvadaabhi raama, vinura vema! = listen to this word of "Vemana" O visvadaabhiraama!
In simple words, Yogi Vemana explains the method of attaining highest state of "sthita prajna".

velugu velugaṁga jēyu galaya velugu
parama paripūrṇa nirguṇa brahma managha

prakrutini which is julugu melasula kalakalu galugu konuchu
dagulaka = not attached to
migili velugu = ever effulgent
velugu veluganga jeyu galaya velugu = the light which makes all other lights light
That parama paripoorna (which is filled inside and out) is the Nirguna Brahma!
