Shanti Mantra :Deciphered




 Shanthi mantra 

 Author Gurukkal Dr. S Mahesh  – The Warrior Monk
 Indian Martial Arts Guru | Spiritual Visionary | Founder, Agasthyam Foundation | Author & Filmmaker

"We often chant… Sarvesham Swastir Bhavatu."

"It means: May there be well-being for all. May there be peace, fullness, and health for everyone."

"But have you ever paused and thought—why are we praying for everyone? What does their peace have to do with my wellness?"

"Here’s the secret: when you genuinely wish peace for others… you create peace within yourself."

"That vibration, that intention—it doesn’t just go outward. It cleanses you. It heals you."

"In fact, most of our stress, pain, and imbalance come from separation… ego… the illusion that ‘I’ am different from ‘you.’"

"But when I say, 'May all be well'… I am dissolving that wall. I am aligning with the universe."

"Wellness, then, is not just about what I eat, or how I train. It is how I think, how I feel, how I wish for the world around me."

"So next time you chant Sarvesham Swastir Bhavatu, feel it. Mean it."

"Because the peace you pray for others… is the greatest gift you give to yourself."


"This is not just prayer. This is practice. This is wellness.

Kalaripayattu never discriminated based on sex, religion, caste, or creed. Boys and girls alike received this fundamental education, creating a society of warrior leaders who were immortalized by their courage. While Kalaripayattu is deeply rooted in Kerala, equivalent martial traditions exist in other parts of South India.
