Guest guest Posted January 31, 2004 Report Share Posted January 31, 2004 These songs are truly beautiful Latha, I especially love 'Sakali tumar icchaa'. During my early days with the Mandir, Maa and Swamiji would always start morning worship (immediately after arati)with the sadhana pancakam. These five verses by Shankar Acharya, tells us how to train the thoughts in the discipline of spirituality. Also, the siva samkalpa strotram ends every verse with - "May my mind be filled with that firm determination of Shiva the Consciousness of Infinite Goodness". The consciousness of Lord Shiva is completely fixed on Mother, He sees no other and moves only according to Her Desire. At 1950, Vishweswar gives a beautiful post on this strotram and an equally beautiful pray for her children. May Divine Mother bless and protect us all, everything is Your desire.
