Mars Mangala orders us to pierce the calling of our soul. As Skanda, he is the commander of Shiva’s army as well as its most valuable weapon. He possesses the fire that burns all ignorance and bestows the highest light of knowledge. This warrior knows first-hand that his fiery nature can easily turn into judgment, anger, and self-criticism. This is why he urges us to sharpen our concentration, so that we have the courage to see the target clearly, to release the arrow from the bow effortlessly, and to know with unwavering confidence it will strike precisely.
