Sri Rudram

This app is mainly for the devotees to help in learning Sri Rudram, Sri Rudra Namakam and Sri Rudra Chamakam chanting.

‘Sri Rudram’ is treated as the celebrated portion of Yajurveda with the sacred Sivapanchakshari mantram (NamaSivaya) enshrined within it. It has got two portions called ‘Namakam’ & ‘Chamakam’ each containing 11 chapters (Anuvakams). Most of the chapters in the first portion end with the letter “namaha” while the ending letter of the second portion is "chame".

It is firmly believed that every deity is pleased with ‘Rudra japam’, also by chanting it whatever be the genuine prayers of one, the same will be granted. Its spoken of as a great purifier and the most effective expiation (pariharam) for even the worst sins. Its the best sadhana for attaining both material and spiritual benefits from Almighty.

It is said: “By reciting ‘Veda’ once, he becomes pure on that day, but by reciting ‘Rudram’ the very next moment he gets purified.” Yet another verse declares: “Where a devout reciter of the Rudram lives, that place will be free from disease, drought, thefts, and other ills.”

A devout listener and seeker of Rudram, Namakam, Chamakam is blessed with both worldly and spiritual benefits such as good health, peace of mind and pure joy. Slowly and steadily it draws the listener to spirituality in the quest of the truth behind human existence.
