Om Bhur Buvah Svaha
Tat Savitur Varenyam
Bhargo Devasya Dhimahi
Dhiyo Yo Nah Prachodayat

(G / C / Am / D )

The mantra begins 4:40 mins into the video.

This sacred mantra is one of the oldest recorded prayers in human history. It is a mantra for the divine light manifested in the sun and a call for the illumination of our consciousness to self-realise.

It is a powerful mantra to sing, particularly during sunrise or sunset. There are many beautiful and amazing ‘translations’ of this mantra as well as melodies to sing it in. The melody we sing here is a gift from Petros Haffenrichter on his CD: Embrace http://petros.biz/music.html#downloads

Namaste David - I would love a download...much prefer your acoustic version. Do you offer these too? Blessings, Orla

David07.07.2018

? We do not do them as downloads... and I will eventually record an acoustic version. But not in the next year, sorry! Meanwhile... REPEAT this video?!?! ?

Orla01.07.2018

How beautiful David - I loved this! It reminded me of my capacity to smile and breathe in light and joy. Namaste dear one, Orla

Hi David! Good to come back to this one! Lately singing a lot of mantras has made me take my guitar out of her deep sleep and bring my beginner's fingers back on the chords. It seems like there is something between the C and the Am...Is it a E? watching your hands but not sure. And for the arpeggio part, is it a bit free? (It strangely each time makes me think of AC/DC' "shook me all night long", quite another style of divine light! :-)). Thank you.

David02.09.2019

AC/DC!!! It is a 'walk down' from the C to the Am. Playing on the A string if that makes sense?

Jocelyne18.06.2016

Thank you David for this great gift. And thanks to Petros for sharing this with us. It was a true pleasure to see a new mantra class. After a very emotionnally challenging week, it was very soothing to chant along with you, very conforting. This mantra chanting was like having a dear friend's presence...very enveloping. From the bottom of my heart and with quite a few shed tears, thank you.

David19.06.2016

Thanks for sharing this and I am touched that these mantra reach the heart.

Alice05.07.2016

Lovely! Thank you, David <3

Laura19.06.2016

So beautiful! At first, I felt hesitant in joining. I was not familiar with the tune or the words. But then after awhile I felt my hesitation fading and my voice coming alive. It felt natural to hold my hands in gyana mudra, and then ending in anjali mudra. This transition felt natural, especially as the light of the setting sun filtered through my window as I chanted the mantra. I think, though, the most impactful moment was when the mantra ended and I had the chance to feel how it changed me emotionally. Very impactful and left me feeling very peaceful.

David22.06.2016

Your courage opened some amazing door for you... thanks for joining, chanting and sharing!

Alessia16.06.2016

I chanted along with you, It was magic. Thank you David, I love your videos and especially the one about mantras! Namaste

Margo19.06.2016

Thank you David for sharing all the beautiful mantras. They are my favorite classes!

David19.06.2016

you are welcome

Dawn23.06.2016

I'm taking a class on Mantras at our local Meditation Center and last night we learned about the subtleness of sounds and the way they can manifest in different ways (not just in sound waves, but also physically). I love the way this mantra resounded in my whole body! I grew up in a family of musicians and hearing your guitar brings me back to a place of peace and security. I'm planning to make this mantra a regular part of my practice; thank you, David, for this wonderful experience!

David27.06.2016

You're welcome.. and thank you for sharing this. The chords to this melody are super easy, pick up your guitar and play along next time :)

Liesbeth17.06.2016

beautiful thank you......

Yuliya04.04.2020

One of my favourite mantras! I’ve always enjoyed Deva Premal version, but this one so beautiful too. Miss the rest of the seed choir so much 🌱🌱🌱

David04.04.2020

Many beautiful versions... and yes, it always touches my heart too 💖

Lotte17.06.2016

As a part of "the eight limbs of yoga" I just did this class "Inquire within class" with Sandra which really made me relax and somehow felt it appropriate to do a chant. I felt like I was emptying out a lot of clutter of my body and mind. It was like the asanas had shaken everything out of the corners of my body and mind and the chant kind of released it the rest of the way out. There has been a lot of "cleaning" the past days and nights and I really feel there could sound an ecco inside of me right now :-D thank you and happy Friday

David17.06.2016

Beautiful... thanks for sharing this. The effect of this mantra in particular, is important and I am happy to have inspired this ecco :)

Astrid01.01.2017

really super to sing with you, you have a very nice warm voice. It makes me very calm and happy, thank you for sharing this with us, namasté

David02.01.2017

Thank you... singing mantras is an important part of my practice and I am happy to share it ... and that these videos are used too!

Karin28.08.2016

Thank you, I suddenly became emotional singing the mantra with you, so it came direct to my heart obviously. And thanks for the beautiful explanation!

David29.08.2016

You are welcome... the explanation opens the door but it is the heart that walks through :) Thanks for sharing

Megan18.06.2016

Thank you!

Veronique23.08.2017

Wonderful! While chanting with you, I felt my late father within me promissing to help me through a difficult period that I face for the moment.

David23.08.2017

Wow! This is a beautiful 'comment' and I am touched to hear that some communication was opened. May there be grace through the difficult moments...

rhona10.10.2016

a beautiful mantra for a non religious person like me. many thanks.x

David10.10.2016

Hi Rhona, Great that you tried it... and even better that you enjoyed it. And yes, it is perfect for people of all beliefs!

Jocelyn12.11.2016

Wow. needed this more than I knew. Miigwetch

David13.11.2016

YES! Every day... Gayatri!

nina27.11.2016

David, that light is all around you x

nina28.06.2016

this was so lovely, I did it just before a job interview and felt so relaxed, so connected. thank you for sharing your angelic tones and the very beautiful melody, it touched me deeply xxxxx

David29.08.2016

WOW! did you get the job?!?!?

Amanda28.10.2016

I've always dreamed of becoming a singer, thanks for making my dreams come true ;) !!

David30.10.2016

It is only the beginning!! Please keep singing, especially mantras! They are an amazing gateway to your voice :)

Martine07.04.2017

Wow just what I was looking for, so beautiful mantras! They reach my heart! This Ekhart yoga course is a blessing for me! It is really complete! So grateful!

David07.04.2017

Pamela01.09.2019

What a beautiful prayer! Thank you!

David02.09.2019

Great you joined in... the world needs it now!

Theresa12.05.2018

Thank you, I love this version. I always appreciate the explanation at the beginning. I also appreciate the length of the mantra lessons. Most 'manta music' out there is too short to get into it vibrationally.

David13.05.2018

Hi Theresa, Glad you like the explanations... there are lots of stories for all the mantras. Some more 'true' than others but when they tough the heart, this is the most important ?

Jojo09.10.2022

What a beautiful start to the day. I did my yoga while I listened. Still so powerful!

David10.10.2022

Wonderful! Glad it was a sweet soundtrack for you

Christine23.04.2020

It was just super relaxing :-) we really enjoyed it when we finally got the text ;-) we felt very calm afterwards. All the best, Christine & Sabine

David23.04.2020

Hehehe.... well, most of the time, intention has priority over technique... but knowing the words helps too! 💖

Miek24.04.2020

I had such a wonderful experience, I really felt softening my heart during signing and then as magic, the sun appeared through the morning mist. Like the rain in Brasil on that special moment during asana practice, that helped washing away everything of us. Thank you.

David24.04.2020

💖Timing is everything 💖

Maya30.03.2020

Wow! So beautiful! It was a bit weird in the beginning to sing the mantra alone and not hear other voices around me, but I actually really enjoyed it :D

David31.03.2020

I am certain the neighbors and anyone else near by appreciated it too 💖

Alessandro01.04.2020

Sun manifest itself today! Beauty

Tina07.04.2020

I always somehow felt how the sun made things lighter for me, brightened me up and even released me - be it temporarily - from my worries. And yet closes to the essence. Very intuitively this. Nice to sing this as a story in a mantra!

Valentina02.04.2020

it was a reminder how it was two weeks ago, a bit strange to sit alone and to sing

David03.04.2020

💖I pictured you sitting along and singing and it made my heart smile 💖

Virginie01.04.2020

The first mantra I learnt together with Loka samasta...This is my base. Singing it 108 times per day is really impacting me a lot. After Deva Primal and Mooji's version, here is a new one for my favourite mantra. All the best for the 2 of you and for...everyone. Om Shanti.

Iris08.04.2020

At the start of the training I was absolutely not into mantras, never sung any before nor knew why people did that. Now I truly love connecting to the sounds, melody, meaning and vibrations when singing mantras. Singing it all together is something so wonderful, which I can sense a little bit when doing it alone at home!

David10.04.2020

Oh Iris, THIS IS MY FAVORITE NEWS!!! Thank you for sharing and although I am happy to have opened the doors of Yoga in several ways for you... opening the doors to your voice and chanting is the most rewarding. Congratulations and let's hope we sing together in a group sometime soon too 💖

daniela30.07.2020

Simply loved this version! Brought me peace and love! Still singing it on my mind :) Thanks

David31.07.2020

Wonderful to hear of the lasting effects. Keep coming back and singing along! 💖

Stefanie18.02.2022

Chanting this cozy on my mat inside, while it’s quite a stormy weather outside. Feels so powerful and magical. Thank you 📿🙏🏻💕

David20.02.2022

You are welcome and I am very happy to know this mantra fit that moment!

Nele29.04.2023

So beautiful, thank you David for the singing and the explanation
