Kurma Shaligram

Kurma Shaligram represents Kurma, the second incarnation of Lord Vishnu in the form of a divine tortoise. During the Samudra Manthan, the cosmic churning of the ocean, Vishnu appeared as Kurma to support Mount Mandara, which was used as the churning rod. Without his support, the mountain would have sunk, and the nectar of immortality would have been lost. Worshipping the Kurma Shaligram brings stability, endurance, and grounding energy. It helps balance the influence of Shani (Saturn) in one's life and supports spiritual growth through discipline and patience. Kurma Shaligram naturally carries tortoise-like features and varies in size and shape. It represents transformation, spiritual foundation, and the strength required to navigate life's challenges.
