Shubham Karoti Kalyanam
Arogyam Dhanasampada
Shatrubuddhi Vinaashaayak
Deep Jyoti namostute...
This was a prayer we were taught to say when we were children. Every evening, the deeya was lighted and we kids would get together to say this prayer. Roughly translated, the prayer means ;'O Lord, I have lit the lamp - let good fortune, health and wealth prevail. May feelings of enemity be destroyed. I bow before the lamp here'.

When I was a child, I did this evening prayer as a ritual. Later, when I got married I still said this prayer every evening- of course with a little more devotion. But it is only now that I find so much more meaning in lighting the deeya and saying this prayer.
When I come home in the evening, my mind is cluttered with thoughts of personal and professional challenges. When I light the deeya and say this prayer, once again my mind is filled with peace and positive energy.
Once again I find strength and a feeling of "All is well and will be well...."
