Yoga Mantra
OM SAHA NAVAVATU
SAHA NAU BHUNAKTU
SAHA VEERYAM KARAVAVAHAI
TEJASVI NAVADHITAMASTU
MA VIDVISHAVAHAI
OM SHANTI, SHANTI, SHANTIHI
This Shanti Mantra is taken from the Krishna Yajurveda Taittiriya Upanishad. It talks about how a teacher student relationship needs to be.
It is usually recited in schools as prayer before the start of the classes in schools. It is also a widely accepted practice to chant this mantra at the start of yoga training sessions.
It is a great mantra that signifies Togetherness. It says we are all each other’s teachers and students. A teacher can also learn lot of things from his students. So the mantra seeks Gods blessings for the teacher and students to learn together in peace. The meaning of the mantra is thus:
OM SAHA NAVAVATU
Om, May God Protect us Both (the Teacher and the Student),
SAHA NAU BHUNAKTU
May God Nourish us Both,
SAHA VEERYAM KARAVAVAHAI
May we Work Together with Energy and Vigour,
TEJASVI NAVADHITAMASTU
May our Study be Enlightening ...
MA VIDVISHAVAHAI
...and not give rise to Hostility,
OM SHANTI, SHANTI, SHANTIHI
Om, Peace, Peace, Peace.
This mantra can also chant on your own when undertaking a project or undergoing personal study. This prayer brings in help and blessings from your teachers even if a physical teacher is not seated in front of you. It is a chant or mantra that protects the sacred relationship of student and teacher. It is a mantra for study.
God, Parham Brahma, formless and supreme, is regarded as ultimate teacher. This sacred mantra is an invocation asking for his protection and guidance.
It is together that we have yoga and union. If we try to accomplish something on our own we may not get very far. The mantra tells us the importance of team work.
