स्मरः (smaraH)


स्मरः (smaraH) means Recollection,Remembrance (Memory), also a name for the Angel of Love(Cupid)

The human body relies on memory function for many activities in our body.

Even to type on a keyboard our fingers just know which keys to hit also due to memory.

Why is the word स्मरः (smaraH) which means Recollection,Remembrance (Memory) is also used to denote the Angel of Love(Cupid)?

What has Love got to do with memory?

Heck it does!

To love someone is to remember someone.

Be it love for family or spouse or child or friend or God..all forms of Love rely on memory.

Al well known  method of prayer is called नामस्मरणम्  nAmasmaraNam...it means "Remembering the name of God"
