I saw him in a distant field, one golden-tusked and pure-bright of hue shaping his weapons: to him I am giving immortality in my several parts and what shall they do to me who possess not Indra and have not the word?

In that field I saw ranging apart what seemed a happy herd in its many forms of beauty; none could seize on them, for he was born, even those of them who were grey with age became young again.

Shunahshepa too was bound to the thousandfold post of sacrifice, him didst thou release and he attained to calm (Or, he achieved the work); so do thou take thy seat here in us, O conscious knower, O Priest of the call, and loose from us the cords of our bondage.

Mayst thou not grow wroth and depart from me: he who guards the law of working of the gods declared to me; Indra knew and sought after and saw thee, and taught by him, O Fire, I have come to thee.

Prayer

We surrender to Thee this evening all that is artificial and false, all that pretends and imitates. Let it disappear with the year that is at an end. May only what is perfectly true, sincere, straight and pure subsist in the year that is beginning.
(The Mother, Words of the Mother - III: New Year Messages)

Nous Te faisons l‘offrande, ce soir, de tout ce qui est artificial et faux, de tout ce qui prétend et imite. Laisse-le s‘évanouir avec l‘année qui finit. Que seul ce qui est parfaitement vrai, sincère, droit et pur subsiste dans cette année qui commence.
(Paroles de la Mère 3, p.)

om sarvadevamayīṁ devīṁ sarvalokabhayāpahām,
brahmeśaviṣṇunamitāṁ praṇamāmi sadā mīrām.
om vindhyasthāṁ vindhyanilayāṁ divyasthānanivāsinīm,
yoginīṁ yogamāyāñca caṇḍikāyai praṇamāmyaham.
iśāṁ mātaraṁ devīmīśvarīmīśvarapriyām,
praṇato‘smi sadā mirāṁ saṁsārārṇavatāriṇīm.
om viśvarūpasya bhāryāsi padme padmālaye śubhe,
sarvataḥ pāhi māṁ nityā mahāmīrā namo‘stu te.

Om. Ever do I bow with adoration to Mira, to the goddess who is the embodiment of all the gods, to the remover of all the fears of the world, to whom Brahma, Shiva and Vishnu offer their salutations.

Om. I bow to Chandika, to the One who is present in the Vindhyas, to the dweller of the divine abodes of the Vindhyas, to the Yogini and to her who is the power of Yoga.

I am forever surrendered to Mira, Durga, the ruling Mother, the goddess beloved of the Supreme, to her who carries us across the ocean of bounded worldly existence.

O thou the beautiful, the lotus in the garden of lotuses, thou art the mate of the Universal. Wherever I am, protect me, may the eternal Maha Mira protect me. Let there be adoration to thee, to the Goddess Sri Mira.

nityā mahāmīrā namo‘stu te,
mahāmīrā namo‘stu te.

Salutations to the Eternal Mahamira.

om mīrāyai namaḥ,
om śrīmīrādevyai namaḥ.
om namo bhagavate śrīaravindāya,
om śrīaravindaḥ śaraṇaṁ mama.
mīrā śaraṇaṁ mama.

Om salutations to Mira.
Om salutations to Sri Mira.
We bow in adoration to the Divine, to Sri Aurobindo.
Sri Aurobindo is my refuge.
Sri Mira is my refuge.

Seekers of the riches we meditate today the all-achieving laud of the divine, heaven-touching Fire.

Great is thy wideness, O Fire, our priest of the call, beloved and supremely desirable; by thee men carry out the sacrifice.

Thee high-lauded, O Fire, the strong conqueror of the plenitudes, the illumined wise increase; so do thou give us the gift of a complete hero-might.

As the rim of a wheel the spokes, so dost thou encompass the gods; thou shalt arrange for us our rich achievement.

On the high-kindled flame pour as offering a poignant clarity, to Fire, the knower of all things born

The spokesman of the godhead, the inviolable hastens the sacrifice on its way, for this is the seer who comes with the wine of sweetness in his hands.

O Fire, we have sought thee with our adoration, bring hither Indra the rich in light, the beloved with his happy chariots to protect us.

Swing wide, O divine doors; be easy of approach that you may be our guard: lead further further and fill full our sacrifice.
