Prayers for peace, auspiciousness and prosperity!
Introduction
by Atman Nityananda
When you sit for meditation in the morning and evening hours, send out currents of your love and peace to all living beings. By repeating these prayers from the heart we create divine vibrations which permeate the astral and mental worlds as well as elevate and purify our mind and fill it with sattva. These prayers prepare the mind in the best possible way for the practice of meditation.
You can repeat them also any time during the day, when you are irritated, upset, frustrated, in stress, anxiety, etc.; their vibrations will bring peace in your mind and will remove the negative energies form your energy field.
Remember that is important to say the prayer with feeling because the feeling fecundates the thought and becomes creative. Simplicity, one pointed mind, faith and awareness of the silent space within are also important components in prayer.
We say all these verses below three times:
Sarvesham swasti bhavatu – May auspiciousness be unto all;
