On 13 January 1996, Sri Chinmoy sang several Sansrkit mantras he had set to music. This is a particular mantra on health.
(Note, unfortunately, the audio quality is quite poor.)
A transcription of this mantra is:
Ojosi Ojo Mayi Dehi
Tejosi Tejo Mayi Dehi
Balamasi Balam Mayi Dehi
Veeryamasi Veeryam Mayi Dehi
Manyurasi Manyum Mayi Dehi
Sahosi Saho Mayi Dehi
If you are physically weak, if your physical constitution is not satisfactory, if you chant:
Tejohasi tejomayi dhehi viryamasi viryam mayi dhehi valam masi valam mayi dhehi
sincerely and soulfully, in a week’s time you will see a change for the better in your health. It means:
“I pray for dynamic energy;
I pray for dynamic virility;
I pray for indomitable physical strength.”Sri Chinmoy, Prayer-World, Mantra-World and Japa-World, Agni Press, New York, 1974
Correct version is this – also see the print below without the Sanskrit
Ojosi Ojo Mayi Dehi
You are the embodiment of infinite power, spiritual splendour, grant power unto me
Tejosi Tejo Mayi Dehi
You are the embodiment of infinite, lustre energy, fill me with energy
Balamasi Balam Mayi Dehi
You are the embodiment of infinite strength, bestow strength upon me
the full text includes the following also
Veeryamasi Veeryam Mayi Dehi
You are the embodiment of infinite vigor, endow me with vigor(vital energy)
Manyurasi Manyum Mayi Dehi
You are the embodiment of infinite courage, inspire me with courage
Sahosi Saho Mayi Dehi
You are the embodiment of infinite patience, fill me with patience
ॐ Shanti Shanti Shantihi
Aum Peace Peace Peace.
