Prayer - Om

Omkaaram Bindusamyuktam Nityam Dhyaayanti Yoginah.
Kaamadam Mokshadam Chaiva Omkaaraaya Namo Namah.

The sacred letter 'Om' is associated with the sacred dot - the Bindu. This 'Om' is the bestower of all wishes and is indeed capable of leading one to freedom from worldly bondage and is meditated upon by yogis. To this letter 'Om' we offer our salutations.

Om Asato Maa Sadgamaya Tamaso Maa Jyotir Gamaya
Mrityor Maa Amrtam Gamaya. Om Shaantih Shaantih Shaantih.

O Lord please lead me from the unreal to the real.
Lead me from darkness to light (i.e. from ignorance to knowledge).
Lead me from death to immortality.
May there be peace, peace and perfect peace

Om Saha Naavavatu Saha Nau Bhunaktu Saha Veeryam Karaavahai.
Tejasvi Naavadheetamastu Maa Vidvishaavahai.
Om Shaantih Shaantih Shaantih.

May the Lord protect us together.May he nourish us together. May we work together uniting our strength for the good of humanity.
May our learning be luminous and purposeful. May we never hate one another.
May there be peace, peace and perfect peace.

Om Poornamadah Poornamidam Poornaat Poornamudachyate.
Poornasya Poornamaadaaya Poornamevaavashishyate.

That is prefect - this is prefect. What comes from such perfection truly is prefect.
What remains after perfection from perfection is yet perfect.
May there be peace, peace and perfect peace.
