“I open my prayer with an invocation to the divine – whatever it may be and however we may conceive it.”
He read the next prayer from Tattiriya Upanishad, composed around 400 BC, reciting again in Sanskrit Om* saha naavavatu, Saha nau bhunaktu, Saha viiryan karavaavahai,*
Tejasvi naavadhiitamastu, Maa vidvishhaavahai, which means, ‘May we be protected together, may we be nourished together, may we work together with great vigor, may our study be enlightening, may no obstacle arise between us.’
