What is a Sangam?

A Sangam is a devotional community group within Smara. The word "Sangam" means a confluence or gathering, and in Smara it represents a space where devotees come together to share their spiritual journey.

What Sangams Offer

• Shared Devotion -- Connect with fellow devotees who share your spiritual interests
• Community Events -- Participate in group pujas, mantra chanting sessions, and festivals
• Spiritual Support -- Encourage and inspire each other in daily sadhana practice
• Local Connections -- Find devotees in your area for in-person gatherings

Types of Sangams

Sangams can be organized around different themes:

• Temple-based communities
• Tradition-specific groups (Shaiva, Vaishnava, Shakta, etc.)
• Regional language communities
• Sadhana practice groups

Each Sangam has community guidelines to maintain a respectful and sacred atmosphere for all members.
