Origin & Story

Traditional · Traditional · Classical

The Dakshinamurti Ashtottara Shatanamavali is a traditional garland of the 108 names of Dakshinamurti. The 108 names of Lord Dakshinamurti, the south-facing form of Shiva as the supreme teacher (guru) who imparts knowledge in silence — each recited with “Om” and “namaḥ”, invoked for wisdom and learning.

✦ As told in scripture

It is said that to offer the 108 names of Dakshinamurti with a sincere and devoted heart — a flower at each name — is to draw the lasting grace of the divine, which never forsakes those who lovingly call upon it.
