"Bhasma" - The Sacred Ash
Bhasma is not merely sacred ash—it is a profound reminder of purity, detachment and the impermanence of the material world.
Applied upon the body, Bhasma reminds us that everything physical eventually returns to its elemental state. It teaches us to move beyond attachment to the body, possessions and desires, and turn our attention towards the eternal Self.
It is also traditionally regarded as a means of purification and protection, symbolising the burning away of impurities and negative tendencies.
Bhasma Dhāraṇam:
“Let what is temporary remind me of what is eternal.” 🙏
