Benefits of Shyamala Dandakam:
Kalidasa was one of the great Sanskrit poets. He wrote many great dramas like Shakunthalam and great epics like Kumara Sambhavam, Malavikagni mithram, the message poetry called Megha Sandesham etc. He is extremely famous for the use of appropriate similes and metaphors. Shyamala Dandakam is perhaps the greatest stotra written by him eulogizing the mother goddess Shyamala.
Dandakam is that poetry where some of the lines have more than 26 syllables. It very much resembles prose. In this case, the entire Dandakam is a single sentence from start to the end.
This dandakam helps for good speech and helps in promoting fine arts faculties such as music, dance, all kinds of arts, etc. Its worship is prescribed to acquire supernatural powers, gaining control over enemies, attracting people and gaining supreme knowledge.
