Query

[Patrick Olivelle]

Dear All:

A colleague who is not on Indology asked me this question. I wonder whether the paṇḍitas out there would be able to identify a source for the verse.

>> A verse that comes in a number of Buddhist rakṣā texts, svastivākya, and inscriptions is:
>> 
>>> sarva satvāḥ sarve prāṇāḥ sarve bhūtāśca kevalāḥ
>>> sarve vai sukhinaḥ santu sarve santu nirāmayaḥ
>>> sarve bhadrāṇi paśyantu mā kaścid pāpam āgamat
>> 
>> 
>> 
>> This verse in modified forms appear to be found in the Hindu tradition as well. Someone has given these verses from a prayer/blessing
>> 
>> 
>> Om sarvesham swastir bhavatu
