The sutra
Then in his quest for brahmavidya, the science of the ultimate truth, Maharishi Ashvalayana went to Lord Brahma, the god of creation, with the attitude of a disciple, carrying samidha, the symbol of the awareness of his own ignorance, and humbly asked: "Lord, kindly teach me the eternally secret and most noble path of brahmavidya that the sages have always walked, and through which the wise have dissolved their past bad actions and experienced the ultimate truth."
Great Lord Brahma then said: "To experience the ultimate reality, one must first take refuge in trust, devotion, meditation and yoga."

The sutra
The sage Asvalayan approached the lord Parameshwar, the creator Brahma, and said, Bhagavan, teach me Brahmavidya, the highest science of reality, the path treaded always by the good people, which is ever a hidden secret to a man. Due to which, discarding all their past sins, the wise men reach the highest purusha, the Buddha-self.
To him, the grandsire, pitamaha, Brahma said, "Know this by means of faith, devotion, meditation and yoga."
