Prayer from Isavasyo upanishad.

**'O' Sun ,who art our nourisher , giver of knowledge,dispenser of justice, giver of light, son of the creator, spreading rays far and wide, draw in your dazzling light ,so that I may be enabled to behold Brahman's beautiful form,who is within you . I am the same person as he that is in you!.........16.

Vayur nilammritam yeksham bhasmath shariram! Om ! Rhito smar kritam smar! Rhito smar kritam smar!....................17 .

Meaning..

**My breath will join the deathless moving winds. My body will be reduced to ashes. But I and my deeds will not disintegrate. Oh mind remember this always, remember this always!

The above prayer for gaining strength is addressed to the morning sun , which an aspirant for knowledge and peace is taught to feel and say.

This prayer occurs in the last of the slokas compiled under the heading 'Isavasyo Upanishad' .These slokas were taught by rishi Datyana Aadarvana to his son .

A daily repetition and contemplation of the truths embodied in these slokas [sanskrit] is prescribed ,to lead a life of detachment and to become free of the repeated cycles of birth and death.
