In our Nepali and Hindi Christocentric Satsangs, the following mantra is always used at the beginning of the service. Ringing the bell and then beginning this Trinitarian chant provides a great and solemn call to worship. It is called a “vandan”, that is, a salutation. We begin our time of devotion and worship by saluting and acknowledging the one Triune and living God – our creator and savior.
I have provided below written forms of this mantra both in Sanskrit (both Devanagari [Pooja font] and Romanized scripts), followed by Nepali and English translations (Romanized).

These chants have been taken from the booklet “Christocentric Satsang”,compiled by Anil Yesudas. “Christocentric Satsang” contains chants in Sanskrit, with translations in Hindi and English. These booklets are available through the website adhyathmavatika.org.
For the sake of our Nepali and Bhutanese friends, in this blog, I have added translations in Nepali.
