Initiation (Diksha)
Initiation, or Diksha, is a spiritual ceremony through which an individual formally begins or deepens their journey in a particular spiritual tradition. It often involves a respectful ceremony or blessing from a spiritual teacher, symbolizing a commitment to learning, practicing, and embodying specific spiritual principles. Diksha can include receiving a mantra, spiritual guidance, or other practices that help focus the mind and develop inner qualities. It serves as a turning point, empowering the devoteeās spiritual growth and strengthening their connection with the divine or their chosen path.
