Eternal Infinite Bliss

सर्वे भवन्तु सुखिनः

सर्वे सन्तु निरामयाः।

सर्वे भद्राणि पश्यन्तु

मा कश्चिद्दुःखभाग्भवेत।

ॐ शान्तिः शान्तिः शान्तिः॥

May all sentient beings be at peace,

may no one suffer from illness,

May all see what is auspicious, may no one suffer.

Om peace, peace, peace.

सभी सुखी होवें,

सभी रोगमुक्त रहें,

सभी मंगलमय घटनाओं के साक्षी बनें

और किसी को भी दुःख का भागी न बनना पड़े।

ॐ शांति शांति शांति॥
