This booklet contains prayers based on ten Vedic shanti Mantras. These mantras were specially chosen by Acharya Shri Shankara Bhagavatpada, who considered them particularly suited for the spiritual development of seekers on the path of Vedanta.
Sadhakas in the shankara vedanta tradition use these mantras for daily recitation as part of their regular spiritual practice. The mantras are also used specially as prayers chanted to invoke divine forces before Swadhyaya (Scriptural study).
