108 Namavali

108 أسماء (Ashtottara شطا namavali) هي صلاة الهندوس

108 Names ( Ashtottara Shata namavali) are prayers encapsulating one hundred and eight names invoking that God or Goddess. The Name Chants play a very important role in Hindu worship. Each invocation is inspired with unsurpassable beauty and grandeur of the God or Goddess, synonymous to the God or Goddess. Gods and Goddesses are worshipped with great passion with these 108 names depicting their various forms, manifestations, power and kind grace. As one immerses in its sacred flow of peace, mind begins to leave the negativity and gets drenched in love and devotion of divine. Uttering or repeating of any of God's innumerable names is one of the recommended paths of sadhana (religious practice) for those seeking the path of bhakthi (devotion). Any name of the god, is followed by “Namah” which means the reader is offering their praise/ salutations to the god. And is also preceded by “Aum”, “Om”: which means “It Is” or “To Become”. This is considered most sacred word in Hindu tradition. When both Om and Namah properly combined with the name of the God or Goddess becomes a holy Mantra and the mantra carries a subtle power to purify the one who chants it.
