Mundaka Upanishad
The words "Satyameva Jayate" from Mundaka Upanishad, meaning "Truth Alone Triumphs", are inscribed below the abacus in Devanagari script. It is a Mukhya (primary) Upanishad, and is listed as number 5 in the Muktika canon of 108 Upanishads of Hinduism. It is among the most widely translated Upanishads.
