Devi Bhava Shrine



This shrine was created in my current hotel digs
in San Ramon to remind me of this sacred sanskrit prayer

असतो मा सद्गमय |
तमसो मा ज्योतिर्गमय ||
मृत्योर् मा अमृतं गमय |
ॐ शांति शांति शांति ||

Which transliterates to:
Asato Ma Sad Gamaya
Tamaso Ma Jyotir Gamaya
Mrityor Ma Amritam Gamaya
Om Shanti Shanti Shanti

Lead us From Untruth to Truth
Darkness to Light
and Death to Immortality
