The
Mangala Mantra often recited after a
pooja or religious ceremony goes:
स्वस्तिप्रजाभ्यः परिपालयंतां न्यायेन मार्गेण महीं महीशाः ।
गोब्राह्मणेभ्यः शुभमस्तु नित्यं लोकाः समस्ताः सुखिनोभवंतु ॥
ॐ शान्तिः शान्तिः शान्तिः |
svasti-prajā-bhyaḥ pari-pāla-yaṁtāṁ nyāyena mārgeṇa mahīṁ mahīśāḥ |
go-brāhmaṇebhyaḥ śubham-astu nityaṁ lokāḥ samastāḥ sukhino-bhavaṁtu ||
auṁ śāntiḥ śāntiḥ śāntiḥ |
Translation
May the well-being of all people be protected By the powerful and mighty leaders be with law and justice.
May good success be with all cows (divinity) and scholars, May all (samastah) the worlds (lokha) become (bhavantu) happy (sukhino).
Om peace, peace, peace"
All beings born in the world are interdependent. That is the law of creation. Why should we weave a cocoon around us and separate us in the name is Sex, Nationality, Race, Religion, and Caste , which are our own creation out of our mental attributes.
Let us break this cocoon and come out to celebrate the New Year 2019 with all others and pray for the welfare of all living beings.
