The Gayatri Mantra
Let us meditate on the glory of that effulgent Reality
from whom the whole universe is projected.
May that Radiance enlighten our hearts, minds, and lives.

Opening Meditation Prayer
I offer my reverence and salutation unto God, Christ, Gurus,
to all deities, all gods, all sages, all savants,
all lovers of God of all times and all lands.
To you all I bow in my soul.
You are all manifestations of the one infinite Spirit,
omniscient, omnipresent, all blissful Reality, to you all I pray.
Inspire me with the blessing of wisdom,
awaken me to the realization of immortality and bliss,
that I may realize I am the absolute Self.

Prayer of Thanksgiving and Devotion    
by Swami Yogananda Paramahansa, amplified by Swami Shankarananda

 “Heavenly Father-Mother God, may Thy love shine forever on the
sanctuary of my devotion, and may I be so permeated with Thy love that
whoever comes into my presence feels upliftment of consciousness and
brightness of heart. We thank Thee for the outpouring of Thy grace.”
Amen


Lord’s Prayer
Our Father, which art in Heaven
Hallowed be thy name;
Thy kingdom come
Thy will be done
In earth, as it is in heaven.
Give us this day our daily bread
And forgive us our debts
As we forgive our debtors;
And let us not enter into temptation
But deliver us from evil.
For thine is the kingdom,
The power,
And the glory,
Forever.
Amen
