Sing the praises of the Lord of Love, the formless infinite One they call
Shiva. Know Him to be the source and the goal of everything, the Self of the
Upanishads, the secret in-dweller in all living beings.
For the delight of His devotees, He dances with names and forms through all eternity, while ever remaining the timeless, nameless, formless Perfection at the Center of it all.
Great King of Dance whirling through infinity, creation and destruction are but your sport. Dance in the hall in the roof of my skull and free me forever!
Facing South, your benign Silence removed the doubts of the four sages
and granted them the ultimate knowing of Brahman. Gracious South-facing Lord,
may your silence bless me with that same knowing!
Spouse of the great Goddess, O three-eyed Lord of Lords wearing serpents
,destroy my blindness and restore my infinite birthright of being one with you!
With Ganga flowing from your hair, O bearer of the trishul and player of
the damarru, wild ash-covered Lord of Kailash, I surrender at your sacred feet.
Pray embrace me and absorb me into you!
Pray embrace me and absorb me into you!
O rider of the bull with the moon in your hair, bless me with your
Grace! Sweet blue-throated Lord who swallowed the poison of the world, remove
the poison of my ignorance and delusion with the sword of your gaze.
You who became an endless column of flame to teach Brahma and Vishnu the
truth, and now bless us all with your mountain form as holy Arunachala, eat up
my ego and let me dissolve in you!
O great Rudra,bless me today!
Har,har,har Mahadev!
O great Rudra,bless me today!
Har,har,har Mahadev!
