A Prayer for Immortality

A Prayer for Immortality

 

Om asato maam sad gamaya

Lead us from untruth to truth

 

Tamaso maam jyotir gamaya

Lead us from darkness to light

 

Mrityormaam amritam gamaya

Lead us from death to immortality

 

Hon asatya se doora bhagawan, Satya kaa vardaana do.

Lord take us far away from untruth - give us the blessing of truth.

 

Door hon dushttimra saare, Jyoti vihaan do.

Take us away from the dense darkness into enlightenment

 

Mrityu bandhan ko hataa, Amaratva he bhagvaana do.

Take us away from the binding of death, and give us immortality.

 

Prakriti paashon se chhudhhaa, Amrit madhu kaa paana do.

Lord, we are stuck in nature's falsehoods, give us the nectar of immortality.
