japo jalpaḥ śilpaṃ sakalamapi mudrāviracanā gatiḥ prādakṣiṇyakramaṇamaśanādyāhutividhiḥ | praṇāmassaṃveśassukhamakhilamātmārpaṇadṛśā saparyāparyāyastava bhavatu yanme vilasitam || 27||
Let all my idle talk become the repetition of Your mantra; every movement of my hands, the forming of sacred mudras; my walking, circumambulation around You; my eating and other acts, oblations into the sacred fire; my lying down, prostration before You; and every comfort I enjoy, an offering of myself. With the attitude of total self-surrender, let whatever I do, O Mother, become Your very worship.
