Pronunciation:
asato ma sad gamaya | tamaso ma jyotir gamaya | mrityor ma amritam gamaya

Translation:
From the unreal to the Real, lead me.
From darkness to Light, lead me.
From death to Immortality, lead me.

Why chant it:
It represents peace and freedom. As we all know, freedom can mean different things to different people but grasping it, even by the edges, can give you a sense of incredible levity.
