CONCLUDING PRAYER


 

Om tryambakam yajamahe

sugandhim pushtivard-hanam

urvar-ukamiva bandhanam

mrytor muksheeya ma amritat

We worship the Three-Eyed-one (Lord Siva), who is fragrant and who nourishes all beings. May He liberate us from death for the sake of immortality, even as the cucumber is severed from its bondage (to the creeper)!

 

sharanagata dinartta

paritrana parayane

saras-yarti-hare devi

narayani namosute [x3]

Thou art the destroyer of all misery. Thou protects eagerly the helpless that seek refuge in Thee. My salutations to Thee O Divine Mother Narayani.

Om sarveshamswastir bhavatu

sarvesham shantir bhavatu

sarvesham poornam bhavatu

sarvesham mangalam bhavatu

May auspiciousness be unto all; May peace be unto all; May fullness be unto all; May prosperity be unto all.

 

sarve bhavantu sukhinah

sarve santu niramayah

sarve bhadrani pashyantu

maa kaschid dukha bhag bhavet

May all be happy; May all be free from dissabilities; May all behold what is auspicious; May none suffer from sorrow.

Om asato maa sat gamaya

tamaso maa jyotir gamaya

mrytor maa amritam gamaya

Lead us from the unreal to the Real; Lead us from darkness to Light; Lead us from mortality to Immortality.

 

Om poornam adah poornam idam

poornat poornam udachyate

poornasya poornam adaya

poornam eva'vashish-yate

Om shantih, shantih, shantih

Om. That is Infinite. This is Infinite. From the Infinite, the Infinite becomes manifest. From the Infinite when the infinite is negated, what remains is again the Infinite. Om Peace, Peace, Peace.

kayena vacha manas-endriyair vaa

budhi atmanava prakriteh svabhavaat

karomi yadyat sakalam parasmai

narayanayeti samarampayami

Whatever I do with my body, speech, mind and senses; by my intellect, self or nature, all these I offer unto the Supreme Lord Narayana.

 

satchidananda bhagvan ki jai

vishwanatha bhagavan ki jai

shankaracharaya bhagavan ki jai

sat guru sivananda maharaj ki jai

Glory to that which is Existence-Consciousness-Bliss-Absolute. Glory to the Lord of the Universe. Glory to Lord Shankaracharya (the greatest exponent of Advaita Vedanta). Glory to Sri Sat Guru Swami Sivanandaji Maharaj.
