The mantra
Om Tryambakaṃ Yajāmahe Sugandhiṃ Puṣṭivardhanam, Urvārukamiva Bandhanān Mṛtyormukṣīya Mā’mṛtāt
Meaning
“We worship the three-eyed one, fragrant, who nourishes all. As a ripe cucumber is freed from its vine, may he free us from death, not from immortality.” The verse is Rig Veda 7.59.12 and also appears in the Yajurveda.
The Mahamrityunjaya mantra is chanted for healing, protection and freedom from fear. Temples hold large group jap anushthans, and families chant it at home during illness or before travel.
When several people share a 1.25 lakh sankalp, everyone needs an accurate personal count. Each person can keep theirs here and add them up at the end.
