Sanskrit affirmations

Early morning affirmations have been a blessing in disguise for people around the world. Waking up and talking good to and about yourself gives people an energy boost perfect to start the day, and trains their subconscious into believing that everything is fine. Plus, if you believe in the law of attraction, the words of affirmation just attract the right things towards you. And so, here we mention 5 Sanskrit phrases that will help build confidence and work as the perfect affirmations.


2/6

Ishwar Asti Mam Shakti

One of the most beautiful Sanskrit phrases that you can speak as an affirmation and as a way to build confidence is ‘Ishwar Asti Mam Shakti’. It means ‘God is my strength’ and will make you believe that no matter how things go or end up, God will be with you, guiding you through the thick and thin.
It is also powerful and assuring, and will really help calm you down if you have been overwhelmed or overburdened the past few weeks because God helps all and strengthens all.


3/6

Na Kadapi Khandita

Another excellent affirmation, one that is bold and powerful, is this one. ‘Na Kadapi Khanditah’ means ‘I can never be broken’, and is the perfect affirmation to build confidence in oneself. When we tell ourselves that we are unbreakable and full of vigour and spirit, no pitfall or failure can shake our efforts and beliefs.
And if you are someone who has lost confidence because of constant failures and criticism, this phrase might just be what your inner energy needs.


4/6

Dhiranam Nischalam Manah

A beautiful Sanskrit phrase that also works as an affirmation is ‘Dhiranam Nischalam Manah’. It means that the mind of the wise man is always steady, and is a character trait that will help build confidence overtime. When you repeat this Sanskrit phrase everyday to yourself, you make a more stable and confident person out of yourself, one who does not waver under pressure or get discouraged by the ups and downs of life.
And it also rather important to understand and inculcate because in moments of uncertainty or self-doubt, it is the ability to remain calm and composed that makes all the difference.


5/6

Yat Bhavo Tat Bhavati

A Sanskrit phrase that will help you understand the power of thought and belief is ‘Yat Bhavo Tat Bhavti’. It simply translates to ‘what you think is what you become’ or what you will think, is what will end up happening.
This phrase is the epitome of the law of attraction and it reinstates in our mind that if we believe we are confident, capable, and strong, we will eventually have all those qualities.


6/6

Antah Asti Prarambha

A beautiful phrase that is a must repeat is ‘Antah Asti Prarambha’ which means ‘the end is also the beginning’.
We are often sad and dejected when things do not work according to us, and when we encounter failures, the first thing that comes to mind is that we have let ourselves down and that nothing will remain the same. But it is important to realise that the end is also beginning and when one door closes, God opens another to help you out.
