Setting up new font in environment
I'm defining a new environment to display some text in devanagari, but the text does not appear to be centered, despite defining centering in the environment:
documentclass{article}
usepackage{fontspec}
newfontfamilymyfont[Script=Devanagari,Scale=1.5]{Sanskrit 2003}
newenvironment{myverse}
{myfont
{parskip=0ptparnopagebreakcentering}
{parnoindentignorespacesafterend}
}
begin{document}
begin{myverse}
कर्मण्येवाधिकारस्ते मा फलेषु कदाचन । \
मा कर्मफलहेतुर्भूः मा ते सङ्गोऽस्त्वकर्मणि ॥
end{myverse}
Some text with translation.
end{document}
Output: 
If I use setmainfont, the center occurs as expected:
documentclass{article}
usepackage{fontspec}
newfontfamilymyfont[Script=Devanagari,Scale=1.5]{Sanskrit 2003}
newenvironment{myverse}
{parskip=0ptparnopagebreakcentering}
{parnoindentignorespacesafterend}
begin{document}
setmainfont[Script=Devanagari,Scale=1.25]{Sanskrit 2003}
begin{myverse}
कर्मण्येवाधिकारस्ते मा फलेषु कदाचन । \
मा कर्मफलहेतुर्भूः मा ते सङ्गोऽस्त्वकर्मणि ॥
end{myverse}
Some text with translation.
end{document}
Output: 
How can I use newenvironment to get centering to work?

Your environment's definition is wrong. You should use in a way like below:
newenvironment{myverse}
{parskip=0ptparnopagebreakcenteringmyfont}
{parnoindentignorespacesafterend}
P.S. The correct syntax is:
newenvironment{name}[num]{before}{after}
where name is the name of the new environment, the num is the number of option(s), and before and after will be put before the text in the environment and afterward, respectively.
