Dear Paul,
thanks for the posts!!
Do you know the source/reference of the sloka ‘Sarve bhavantu …
Warm regards, Gisela
Hello Gisela,
Not yet as didn’t get round at the time to asking Desikachar and every reference claim I have so far found has been not true when you refer to the text quoted.
I kinda feel it is one of those chants, like Śuklām or Yogena that have been absorbed into the ‘chanting canon’ from time immemorial without a verifiable origin.
But will keep looking meanwhile.
Warm regards, Paul
