In Vedas we can find suitable elevating energizing thoughts for every conceivable human activity. For
example, here is a set of thoughts or mantras suitable for invocation while starting a business. (Atharva).
Once again, for best results the original Sanskrit Verses need to be used, while keeping their meanings at
the back of one's mind.
3.15.1 Keeping the wealthy Vanik (God) at the fore I am starting my business. May He come within us and
lead us. Roughing the enemies and robbers, may He be giving us wealth.
3.15.2 May all the sky and earth-bound ways for conducting the business be nourishing and supporting so
that I can bring in wealth.
3.15.3 Hey Agni! with wood and ghee I am making this offering to you. I am grateful to You for giving me
the business acumen and skill through which I can run hundreds of businesses at the same time.
3.15.4 Hey Agni! you have seen the hardships we have encountered. May our deals be very profitable. Let
us enjoy them together.
3.15.5 Hey Agni! may our investment grow and not diminish. Keep away the stupid ones who may create
loss.
3.15.6 May adept Prajapathi, bright Savitha, cool Soma and able Indra generate in me full interest in my
business.
