One of hundreds of Universal Vedic Prayers
May the Goddess Waters be auspicious for us to drink.
May they flow, they flow, with blessings upon us.
May the Earth be pleasant and free of thorns as our place of rest.
May She grant us a wide peace.
May the Divine Waters which grant us blessings
May they sustain our vigor and energy, and for a great vision of delight.
May we partake of that which is their most auspicious essence, as from loving mothers.
May the Heaven grant us peace, and the Atmosphere.
May the Earth grant us peace, and the Waters.
May the plants and the great forest trees give us their peace.
May the Devas grant us peace.
May Brahman grant us peace.
May the entire universe grant us peace.
May that supreme peace come to us.
May that peace dwell in me.
Take this firm resolve:
May all beings look at me with the eyes of a friend.
May I look at all beings with the eyes of a friend.
May we all look at each other with the eyes of a friend.
