Trisandya

The Trisandya (from Sanskrit त्रिसन्ध्या पूज, Trisandhyā Puja, "three-evening prayer") is a commonly-used prayer in Indonesian Hinduism. It is uttered three times each day: 6 am at morning, noon, and 6 pm at evening, somewhat reflecting the Muslim azan prayers.[1][2]

Trisandya Mantra

Part I

The first part of this mantra was derived from the Gayatri Mantra.

Oṃ bhūr bhuvaḥ svaḥ

tat savitur vareṇyaṃ

bhargo devasya dhīmahi

dhiyo yo naḥ pracodayāt

OM is the Earth, Sky, and the Heavens.

Let us meditate on the light of the Sun

and may our thoughts be

inspired by that divine light.

Part II

Oṃ nārāyana evedam sarvam

yad bhūtam yacca bhavyam

niṣkalanko nirañjano nirvikalpo

nirākhyātaḥ śuddho deva eko

Nārāyano na dvitīyo’sti kaścit

OM, Narayana is all that has been and what will be,

free from taint, free from dirt,

ever existing and without form,

Holy God Narayana,

He is the only one and there is no other.

Part III

Oṃ tvam śivaḥ tvam mahādevaḥ

Īśvaraḥ parameśvaraḥ

Brahmā viṣṇuśca rudraśca

puruṣaḥ parikīrtitaḥ

OM, You are Shiva, You are the Great God;

You are Ishvara, Parameshvara;

You are Brahma, Vishnu, and Rudra;

You are Purusha, the supreme soul, and the source of everything.

Part IV

Oṃ pāpo’ham pāpakarmāham

pāpātmā pāpasambhavaḥ

trāhi mām puṇḍarikākṣa

sabāhyābhyāntaraḥ suciḥ

OM, I am full of sin, my action is sinful,

I myself am sinful, and my birth is sinful,

save me, O Lotus-Eyed One,

purify my body and mind.

Part V

Oṃ kṣamasva mām Mahādeva

sarvaprāni hitankara

mām moca sarva pāpebhyah

pālayasva sadā Śiva

OM, forgive me, Great God,

You who give salvation to all sentient beings,

save me from my sins

and protect me, O Sada Shiva.

Part VI

Oṃ kṣāntavyaḥ kāyiko doṣaḥ

kṣāntavyo vāciko mama

kṣāntavyo mānaso doṣaḥ

tat pramādāt kṣamasva mām

OM, forgive my wrong actions,

forgive my wrong speech,

forgive my sinful mind,

forgive me for all of my misdeeds.

Part VII

Oṃ... śantiḥ, śantiḥ, śantiḥ... Oṃ...

OM, may there be peace, peace, peace ... OM
