Mother

अपो अस्मान् मातरः शुन्धयन्तु घृतेन नो घृतप्वः पुनन्तु | विश्वं हि रिप्रं प्रवान्ति देवीरुदिदाभ्यः शुचिरा पूता एमि ||

"O Mothers! Purify us with your compassion, understanding and enlightenment. The women cleanse us all from all our sins, corruption and defects. We come out firm, pure and noble from their blessed company."
~ RigVeda 10.17.10

Present Time

गते शोको न कर्तव्यो भविष्यं नैव चिंतयेत्।
वर्तमानेन कालेन वर्तयंति विचक्षणाः॥

No grief for the past, no worry for the future,
The Clear Seers exist in Present Time.

गृहीत इव केशेषु

गृहीत इव केशेषु मृत्युना धर्ममाचरेत् ।

Act upon Dharma as if Death has grabbed you by the hair.
