Oṃ! May my organs and limbs, my speech, my breath, my strength and my sense organs like the ear, the eyes etc., be well nourished.
Everything is Brahman as propounded clearly in the Upanishads.
May I never deny Brahman. May Brahman never deny me. Let there be no denial at all (of Brahman). Let there be no denial for me (of Brahman).
May I also pray that the virtues (as described in the Upanishads) of those wise men who dwell in the Ātma (or the Soul) become part of me and reside in me.
Oṃ, peace, peace, peace.
