|| Jai Sriman Narayana ||



|| Om Namashivaya ||












My humble salutation to supreme Lord Shiva, I have prepared a marvelous throne decorated with precious gems for you and Himajala for your ablution, majestic clothes decorated with various precious gems for you, I have prepared superior fragrances mixed with sandalpaste for anoint your body, I shall offer you fresh alluring flowers of Jathi, Champaka, and Bilwa along with Dhoopam and Dheepam.  Oh! Lord Pasupathi, kindly accepts my humble offerings which I have envisaged in my heart with utmost faith and devotion for you.



Oh! Lord Pasupathi, I have prepared sweet porridge and presented before you in a marvelous bowl decorated with nine precious gems, I have arranged five types of meals made of milk and curd, along with bananas, various fruits, betel nut/Thamboolam and a special kind of Panakam/juice,  Oh! Lord Pasupathi, Oh! Prabho, kindly accepts my humble offerings which I have envisaged in my heart with utmost devotion and dedication for you.


Oh! Lord Pasupathi, Oh! Prabho I have arranged Chathram, Chamaram/fan made of soft fur, mirror for your comfort, I have organized divine music produced by Veena, Bheri, Mridangam and superior dance forms, I shall prostrate before you and eulogize your glories with various sacred hymns.  Oh! Prabho kindly accept my offerings and veneration which I have envisaged in my heart with utmost devotion and faith for you.



Oh! Lord Pasupathi, Oh! Prabho, Oh! Shambho,  I have realized your presence with Goddess Sri Parvathi in me as Athma/ soul, I shall offer my soul as your servant, I shall offer my body as shrine for you, I shall devote all my sense organs for your worship, and sleep as the state of Samadhi/meditation, I shall offer all my movements as circumambulation to you, I shall offer whatever I pronounce as your sacred hymns praising your glories, eventually whatever I perform would be with intense devotion towards you.



Oh! Lord Mahadeva, Oh! Lord Shambho who is the ocean of mercy,  I shall earnestly pray to forgive us for whatever mistakes or sins we have committed by  Kara/hands, Charanam/feet, Kayajam/words, Karmajam/action or Shravana/by listening, Nayanam/by the act of seeing, or by Manasam/heart and mind. Victory to Lord Mahadeva !  Victory to Lord Shambho !
