The Blessing ~ Excerpt from SHREE MAA’S FAVORITE RECIPES (September’s Book of the Month)

[Guest guest]

This prayer is the blessing Shree Maa and her guests sing before eating any meal.

 

om brahmarpanam brahma havir

brahmagnau brahmana hutam

brahmaiva tena gantavyam

Brahmakarma samadhina

om The Supreme Divinity makes the offering; the Supreme Divinity is the offering; offered by the Supreme Divinity. By seeing the Supreme Divinity in all actions, one realizes the Supreme Divinity.

 

om purnamadah purnamidam

purnat purnamudacyate

Purnasya purnamadaya purnamevava sisyate

om That is whole and perfect; this is whole and perfect. From the whole and perfect, the whole and perfect becomes manifest. If the whole and perfect issue forth from the whole and perfect, even still only the whole and perfect will remain.

 

om santih santih santih

om Peace, Peace, Peace
