Lokah Samastah Sukhino Bhavantu (May All Beings Be Happy and Free)

Lately I have been singing this chant: lokah samastah sukhino bhavantu.

It is a Sanskrit phrase that means may all beings be happy and free.

Today, on Dr. Martin Luther King Jr. Day, this is my mantra.

Dr. Martin Luther King Jr. once said, “Life's most persistent and urgent question is: ‘What are you doing for others?’”

May every action you take today be in service, and may we be reminded of the importance of peacefulness, humility, courage, and freedom. We are blessed beyond measure.

Take a moment today to be grateful for the freedoms in your life, and perhaps give your practice away to all of those who are fighting for freedom. Namaste.
