The Sanskrit word Nitya (नित्य) resonates deeply with the essence of the books I have recently published. Often translated as eternal, constant, or perpetual, Nitya builds on these definitions, symbolising that which is timeless, uninterrupted, and unceasing—a concept that perfectly embodies the nature of Truth and the prayers these books seek to preserve.
The prayers compiled in these volumes are not mere collections of words; they are timeless streams of wisdom passed down through generations, unbroken and undiluted. They are Nitya—eternal reflections of the Truth that is always present, never beginning nor ending, simply existing as the substratum of all. In Sanskrit, Truth is understood not as a static concept but as a dynamic, living presence, an uninterrupted flow of intelligence permeating the universe.
When we engage with these prayers, we step into this unceasing stream. We connect with something far greater than ourselves—a rhythm of existence that has no beginning and no conclusion. It is as though the words and sounds of these ancient prayers become vessels through which we access the eternal Truth, the Satya that has always been and always will be.
The word Nitya also reminds us of the constancy of spiritual practice. In a world of change, prayer and reflection ground us in something unchanging. These books, therefore, are not just about preserving prayers; they are an invitation to align ourselves with the perpetual and unbroken Truth, to become part of this sacred continuum.
By choosing Nitya as the guiding principle for these works, I hope to inspire practitioners to engage with the eternal in their own lives and experience the profound beauty of uninterrupted connection with the Truth. For what is timeless is never distant—it is always present, waiting to be realised.
