Mantra
Devanagari:
उषो न जारः विष्णो त्रिविक्रम ज्योतिषा बाधते तमः
आरोहन्बृहतः पाजसस्परि विश्वचक्षाः
अनागास्त्वेन नो अद्य देवानामवसा सह
भद्रं जीवन्तो जरणामशीमहि सुमनसः
Transliteration:
Usho Na Jarah Vishno Trivikrama ज्योतिषा बाधte तमः
Arohanbrihatah Pajasaspari Vishvachakshah
Anagastvena No Adya Devanamavasa Saha
Bhadram Jivanto Jaranamashimahi Sumanasah
Translation:
Like the rising Sun at dawn, O Vishnu, measurer of earth, mid-space, and heaven in three steps, You dispel darkness with Your light,
Ascending from the vast firmament of strength as the all-beholding witness;
In sinlessness today, accompanied by the protection of the Gods,
Living auspiciously and cheerful in mind, may we attain a blessed old age.
