A brass Namam wall mount is a decorative and symbolic piece commonly found in Hindu homes, especially among devotees of Lord Vishnu and Lord Balaji (Venkateswara). “Namam” refers to the “Urdhva Pundra” or the sacred mark worn on the forehead, particularly by Vaishnavites. When combined with the Shank (conch) and Chakra (discus), it forms the iconic “Shanku Chakra Namam.”
Spiritual and Religious Significance:
- Representation of Lord Vishnu/Balaji: The Namam, often flanked by the Shank (conch) and Chakra (discus), are the primary symbols of Lord Vishnu. Placing this wall mount in your home is akin to inviting the divine presence and blessings of Lord Vishnu or Lord Balaji.
- Protection and Auspiciousness: These symbols are believed to ward off negative energies, bring good fortune, and protect the inhabitants of the home. The Shank represents the primordial sound of creation (Om) and purity, while the Chakra symbolizes divine power, protection, and the wheel of time. The Namam itself represents the sacred feet of Lord Vishnu and devotion.
