ଓଁ ସର୍ଵେ ଭଵନ୍ତୁ ସୁଖିନଃ

This timeless Sanskrit prayer extends far beyond personal or familial well-being. Rather than seeking personal welfare alone, it expands our consciousness to embrace the well-being of all existence. The repeated use of the word "Sarve" (meaning 'all' or 'everyone', without any exception) emphasises this universal scope, transcending the limitations of individual concern. The opening lines "sarve bhavantu sukhinaḥ, sarve santu nirāmayāḥ" express the profound wish for all beings to experience true happiness (sukhinaḥ) and perfect health (nirāmayāḥ).
