"Vedaḥ Śivaḥ Śivo Vedaḥ" - Free discourse on Shiva tattvam in Sri Rudram by Dr Guha Vishwanath

“vedaḥ śivaḥ śivo vedaḥ”

“वेदः शिवः शिवो वेदः”

“ವೇದಃ ಶಿವಃ ಶಿವೋ ವೇದಃ”

The Vedas form the foundation on which our culture has stood for centuries. Their inherent auspiciousness is so profound that Veda and Śiva—the very principle of auspiciousness—are often seen as one. The language of the Vedas is layered and subtle, requiring effort even to grasp their primary meaning. Yet it is these mantras that have sustained our traditions and rituals across generations, carrying within them the vision and applied wisdom of the Rishis. The true value of this tradition becomes evident when we engage with the mantras beyond their literal sense and appreciate their deeper, implied meanings. This talk explores the depth and range of Vedic mantras through Rudra, one of the most celebrated deities of the Vedas.

Offered by Svabhaa Foundation as a free online discourse on the auspicious occasion of Maha Shivaratri, this talk serves both as an exploration of Shiva tattvam and as an introduction to the deeper study of Śrī Rudram.
