Shiva Manasa Pooja



The Shiva Maanasa Pooja is a unique stotra when compared to other compositions of Sri Adi Shankaracharya. It in in the form of a prayer  in which a devotee imagines in his mind all the offerings and rituals prescribed in a pooja and offers them to lord Shiva with faith and devotion. This stotra clearly shows that faith and intentions are far more important than rituals and physical offerings.
