Slokas to be At commencement of Parayana

a.Shuklam Baradaram Vishnum, Sasi Varnam Chatur Bhujam,

Prasanna Vadanan Dyayet, Sarva Vignoba Sandaye 1

Dressed in white you are,

Oh, all pervading one,
And glowing with the colour of moon.
With four arms, you are, the all knowing one
I meditate on your ever-smiling face,
And pray, “ Remove all obstacles on my way”.

Who has won over his mind,
Who has similar speed as wind,
Who has mastery over his organs,
