Jugad Guray Nameh
Sat Guray Nameh
Siri Guru Devay Nameh

I bow to the wisdom of the ages.
I bow to the truth.
I bow to the great unseen wisdom.

Siri Gaitri Mantra

Ra Ma Da Sa Sa Say So Hung

Ra is the energy of the Sun: strong, bright and hot. It energizes and purifies.
Ma is the energy of the moon: receptive, cool, and nurturing.
Da is the energy of Earth: secure and personal. It is the ground of action.
Sa is the impersonal Infinity. The cosmos in all of its dimensions, openness, expansiveness and totality is Sa.
Say is the totality of experience and is personal. It is the feeling of a sacred “Thou.” It is the embodiment of Sa. “Sa Say” brings these two together.
So is the personal sense of merger and identity.
Hung is the Infinite, vibrating and real. The two qualities together (So and Hung) mean: “I am Thou.”

Phonetic:
low-KAH
some-uh-STAH
sookie-NO
bah-von-TOO

Benediction and Blessing: The Long Time Sun

May the long time sun shine upon you
All love surround you
And the pure light within you
Guide your way on
