Sanskrit & Tamil Spiritual Names & Meanings

Words have great power. This is an essential truth, which is most important on the spiritual path. We should be careful how we use sound and words to express our feelings to others.

Swamiji gives spiritual names to devotees that are most suitable in vibration and meaning for their spiritual development. Each name has a spiritual quality and vibration of its own. Saying your name and using it, brings about that special energy. Swamiji encourages those who have these meaningful names to live up to the great philosophies and qualities contained therein.

These names are Sanskrit or Tamil names of the Divine, attributes of the God or divine personalities. Divine names have great power to remove negative energy and create vibrations that have beneficial effects when spoken.

There are many, many legends and interpretations connected with the names of deities and saints. Some may differ according to the various areas. For some names, the meaning is not complete without the legend or myth surrounding it.

The Sanskrit and Tamil languages are two of the most ancient in the world. Great souls heard the sounds of Sanskrit in meditation and created this wonderful language. Tamil is the gift to humankind of Lord Shiva Himself and its patron is His divine child, Murugan.
