PATANJALI INVOCATION
traditionally chanted before Iyengar Yoga Classes
Picture
Yogena cittasya padena vacam
Malam sarirasyaca vaidyakena
Yopakarottam prvaram muninam
Patanjalim pranjaliranato’smi

Abahu purusakaram
Sankha cakrasi dharinam
Sahasra sirasam svetam
Pranamami Patanjalim

To the noblest of sages, Patanjali, who gave us yoga for serenity of mind,
grammar for purity of speech and medicine for the perfection of the body,
I salute.

I salute before Patanjali whose upper body has a human form,
whose arms hold a conch, and disc and a sword, who is crowned by a thousand headed cobra.
​Oh incarnation of Adisesa my humble salutations to thee.
