101 Attributes of God

The 101 Attributes of God (or Names of God as they are sometimes called) are chanted by the devotees as a means of understanding the Lord and thinking about his magnificence. Since God is indescribable, these attributes help the devotee get a glimpse of His "personality". For many devotees these are part of the daily prayers and help to provide solace when chanted continuously or during distress. Ritually, they are taken while chanting the "Baj" prayer during the Yazashne ritual while continuously sprinkling the ring made of eight metals with the hair of the pure Varasya (holy cow), into the water vessel.
