Loka Samasta Sukhino Bhavantu
With my older students, we chant 'Loka Samasta Sukhino Bhavantu' at the conclusion of each class. This chant means 'May all beings everywhere be happy and free, and through my actions, words and thoughts, may I contribute to that happiness and freedom.'
Sun Salute Chant
'The sun, the sun. I salute the sun. I open my heart to everyone! The sun rises, the sun sets, the whole world in my heart rests. Again I rise, ready to live, happy to be, and ready to give! The sun, the sun. I salute the sun. I open my heart to everyone!' (author: Sydney Solis) This is a chant that I teach my older students as we learn Sun Salutations.
