## What is Learn Aditya Hridayam?

Aditya Hridayam is a powerful mantra taught by the sage Agasthya to Rama before his battle with Ravana. Daily recitation of this short but powerful mantra confers the blessings of the Sun God in daily tasks. This is a great mantra to start with, in your journey of learning the Hindu scriptures by heart and learning to chant them accurately. 

Practice daily in a scientific, systematic way to learn to chant the Aditya Hridayam by-heart. This app breaks up the entire scripture into small lessons. Learn each lesson by reciting phrases after an authentic recording with perfect pronunciation. As you practice more, the phrases get longer to keep you learning. 
Available with Aditya Hridayam text transliterated in 5 languages - Sanskrit, English, Tamil, Kannada and Telugu.
