Favorite Prayers & Texts (1)

Divine Me Time celebrates all traditions and wisdom paths. Here, I share some of my all-time most influential favorite prayers, verses, and texts that I hope will inspire you as much as they inspire me.

The Japji Sahib

I can’t begin to express how deeply profound and impactful this sacred prayer of the Sikh’s, written by Guru Nanak, is in my life. Whenever I feel confused, fearful, or lost, I listen and my heart is set at ease.

The Mother by Sri Aurobindo

The Mother by Sri Aurobindo: Favorite Prayers & Texts

For me, this is one the most influential books of 2024, though it was written in the 1920’s. It’s a short text of 6 chapters about the Divine Feminine Principle (Shakti) in all her magnificent forms. I regret I am unable to share a reading of this beautiful text with you because of copyright, but you can download a copy of it here.

Scientific Healing Affirmations by Paramahansa Yogananda

Another favorite prayer text comes from Paramahansa Yogananda. I often fall aleep and wake to this beautiful prayer.

Prayer by CR Das

I found this little gem somewhere on my path; I don’t remember where. I have not come across it since and am so glad I wrote it down and have kept it all these years.

Thou art the life of the universe; to me the light of day Thou art, and the dark of night: Activities field when I do wake and see; In sleep my dream. Oh Life of Life, the light Thou art to me of day, the dark of night. Release me of my vice and virtue; make my heart void, and this heart make empty fill with thy entirety. Thy excelling take and make me great with it. Enfold me still, within thee: cover me, Protector bright, my light of day who art and dark of night.
