We seek the auspiciousness and refuge of Him who is well-being. May there be a path for the sacrifice and the lord of the sacrifice. May divine auspiciousness come to us. May there be welfare for humanity. May medicine rise upward. May there be peace for bipeds and quadrupeds. Salutations to the divine lord of the Vedas, who bestows welfare on cows and brahmanas, who benefits the whole world — salutations to Krishna, to Govinda!
During Vishnu puja, Satyanarayan puja, or Vedic homam.
