Rudrakramapāṭhaḥ

With the grace of Śiva, I’m happy to offer this very special practice of chanting the Rudram as a krama-pāṭhaḥ. This is one of the many way the Ṛṣi-s of Vedic times devised as an error correction methods to preserve the Veda. It is also considered a special worship to Lord Rudra-Śiva. We recite the entire text two words at a time together, adapting the svara-s and grammar appropriately. A phonetic guide for such a recitation is not possible and the learning process will be very humble, just listen and repeat with the text available in English transliteration and Devanāgari.
