Shaanti Paathh (Prayers for peace)

Shaanti Paathh

Prayers for peace

 

There are three kinds of suffering in the world: Suffering by natural calamities (fire, floods earthquake etc), Physical suffering (pain and illness of the body) and Spiritual suffering (of the mind and soul - worry, hatred, jealousy, addictions etc.) We are praying to God to relieve us of all the three kinds of sufferings.

 

Om dhauh shaantiranta rikshagung (May there be peace in Heaven)

 

Shaantihi prithiwee (May there be peace on earth)

 

Shaanti raapaah (May there be peace in the waters)

 

Shaantir oshadhayaah (May there be peace to the medicinal herbs)

 

Shaantihi vanaspatayaah (May there be peace to all the plants)

 

Shaantir vishvedevaah (May there be peace unto all the Gods.)

 

Shaantir brahmaa (May there be peace Unto Brahmaa)

 

Shaantihi sarvam (May there be peace unto all)

 

Shaantihi shaanti revaa (Peace pervades everywhere)

 

Shaantihi saa maa, Shaanti redhi (May that peace come to me)

 

Hari om shaanti, shaanti, shaanti (Unto all these be Peace, Peace, Peace.)
