(Note: the word 'Peace' is repeated three times at the end of peace chants to inspire peace physically, mentally and spiritually) 

From the Devi Mahatmya Scriptures dedicated to the Mother Goddess:

Om Dhyau shanti rantariksham shantihprithvi shanti rapah shanti roshadhayah shantih Vanaspatayah shantir vishwedevah shantirbrahma shantih sarvam shantih shantirevashantih sa ma shantiiredhiOm Shantih: Shantih: Shantih. O lord ! Peace be in the higher regions, peace be in the mid regions and peace be on earth. May the waters flow peacefully; may the herbs be healing; and the plants peace giving.May there be harmony in the celestial objects and perfection in knowledge.May all be in peace and may that peace come to me.Om peace: peace: peace.
