Patanga: my spiritual name

by Patanga Cordeiro

day-5-day-1--046.jpgPatanga is a Sanskrit spiritual name. Some names are very short, while others are very long. A spiritual name is the soul´s mantra, and it can also give indications of the soul´s mission. After receiving my name, I changed all necessary papers and documents, as I really wanted to call myself only by my spiritual name. Life is too short. I was given the name with the following meaning:

Patanga – a rishi who was part-author of the Rig Veda.

(A rishi means a “divine seer”)  The conciseness of the meaning of my name is both a relief and a challenge. Few things to concentrate on, but much to discover.

 

Spirituality means speed
