Shan No Mitra

from Taittiriya Upanishad


Aum shan no Mitrah sham Varunah. Shan no bhavatvaryama.
Shan na Indro Brihaspatih. Shan no Vishnururukramah.
Namo Brahmane. Namaste Vayo. Tvam eva pratyaksham Brahmasi.
Tvam eva pratyaksham Brahma vadishyami. Ritam vadishyami. Satyam vadishyami.
Tanmam avatu. Tadvaktaram avatu. Avatu mam. Avatu vaktaram. 
Aum Shantih Shantih Shantih



Aum, may Mitra be propitious to us. May Varuna bless us. May the blessings of Aryama be  with us. May the Grace of Indra and Brihaspati be upon us. May Vishnu, the All-pervading (“wide-striding”) be propitious to us. Salutations to Brahman. Salutations to Thee, O  Vayu! Thou art the visible Brahman. Thee alone shall I consider as the visible Brahman. I shall declare:- Thou art the “right.” Thou art the “Good.” May That protect me; May  That protect the speaker. Please protect me. Please protect the speaker.
