Śiva Saṅkalpam
Join Shantala in Italy (06-12 July) to celebrate Gurupūrnimā and learn the Śiva Saṅkalpa Sūktam, where the mind is encouraged to become self-mastered, akin to Śiva. This potent 32-verse hymn, acts as both a Mantra and Vow (vrata), inviting calmness, aligning with righteousness, and fortifying resolve. It nurtures the mind towards our life’s purpose and soothes during times of confusion or despair.
