📖What is a Sankalpam?

Sankalpam (संकल्प) means 'resolve' or 'intention' in Sanskrit. It is the sacred declaration made before any Vedic ritual, stating the cosmic time (Samvatsara, Ayana, Ritu, Masa, Paksha, Tithi, Vaara), the location, and the purpose of the ritual. It aligns your individual action with the cosmic order (Rta).
