Kshetrapal jap
There are entities which guard and look after designated areas of the earth. These entities are called Kshetrapals. When we live in a particular area, or when we enter a particular place, it is important to keep the guardians of that place happy. If the guardians are happy the inhabitants of that place will certainly be happy. For this, one should chant the Kshetrapal jap, which is:
OM KSHETRA PALAYA NAMAH ऊँ क्षेत्रपालाय नमः।
Guru Vandana
Finally, it is important to remember the Guru at the beginning and end of any prayer. Guru Vandana is a prayer to the Guru.
TIKKHUTTO AYAHINAM PAYAHINAM KAREMI VANDAMI NAMASMAMI SAKKAREMI SAMMANEMI KALLANAM MANGALAM DEVAYAM CHAYIYAM PAJJUWASAMI MATTEN VANDAMI
Three times to the right side I make a circle (with folded hands) I do worship, bow, respect, and honour you. You are divine. You are the remover of obstacles. You are like a God. You are an ocean of knowledge. I serve you. I bow my head at your feet.
