Prsna Upanishad - An Introduction:

This Upanishad forms part of the Atharva Veda and houses some of the very vital explanations offered by a Guru to disciples. The words "Prsna" means questions and in this Upanishad, the disciples ask Prsna to their Guru, who clarifies each one of them. That is how this Upanishad got the name "Prsna Upanishad".

Om! O Devas! May we hear only the good with our ears; O the ones to be worshipped! May we see only the good with our eyes; may we have strong limbs and bodies, which will enable us to pray and worship the Devas. May we live unto such time the Devas feel we should live. May the Lord Indra, of great fame, shower some grace and good on us. May the Lord Surya (the Sun God), the knower of all, shower some grace and good on us. May the Lord Garuda, who has an unfettered clear path (to liberation), shower some grace and good on us. May the Lord Brhaspati shower some grace and good on us.

Om Shanti ! Shanti ! Shanti !
