Opening mantra

Om
vande gurunam caranaravinde
sandarshita svatma sukha va bodhe
nih sreyase jangalika yamane
samsara halahala mohasahantyai

abahu purushakaram
shankacakrasi dharinam
sahasra shirasam svetam
pranamami Patanjalim
Om

In english
I pray to the lotus feet
of the supreme Guru
who teaches the good knowledge,
showing the way
to knowing the selfawakening great happiness;
who is the doctor of the jungle,
able to remove the poison
of the ignorance of conditioned existence.

To Patanjali, an incarnation of Adisesa,
white in color with 1000 radiant heads
(in his form as the divine serpent, Ananta),
human in torm below the shoulders
holding a sword (discrimination),
a wheel of fire (discus of light, representing infinite time),
and a conch (divine sound)
to him, I prostrate.

Closing Mantra
Om
Svasti praja bhyaha pari pala yantam
Nya yena margena mahi mahishaha
Go brahmanebhyaha shubamastu nityam
Lokah samastah sukhino bhavantu
Om shanti shanti shanti 

In english
Let prosperity be glorified -
let rulers, (administrators) rule the world with law and justice
let divinity and erudition be protected
let all beeings be happy and prosperous.
