|| Jai Sriman Narayana ||
Oh! Pashupathe, I may have the fortune to
witness your divine and lustrous feet resembles to lotus in my dream, I have
completely drenched in severe sins, will I have the fortune to witness those
lotus feet which is the safest heaven and highest of the pieties to the world?
Your well known compassion induces hopes in me.
Oh! Kapalin, who acts as a mendicant, dwells merrily in the funeral
grounds and enthusiastically explore with the Bhoothaganas, all those myths are
renowned to the world, you are the supreme Lord who is Lord of Lords and Lord
of living beings as well, Oh! Natha, I will not forsake your lotus feet even in
my dreams. Oh! Esha who is smeared in holy ashes all over the body, your
dwelling place is funeral grounds; you are decorated in bones and skulls as
garlands, Oh! Esha, your superiority eulogized by the Vedas cannot be denied even
by Lord Bhrama. Oh! Jagadheesha, Veda eulogizes the various attributes of
deities and demigods, Oh! Jagadheesha who is decked in crescent moon on matted
hair locks, some of the demigods might have wrongly assumed themselves as
superior to you. Oh! Paramashiva, who
merrily explore on the creation grounds, he has the whole Universe as his
abode, he has Rajathagiri/silver Mountain/ Mount Kailash as his superior abode,
or the highest peaks with the deposit of rich minerals and gems, Oh! Esha,
kindly induce servitude in me, and let me remain one of your sincere servants
who carry your Sripadhuka. Oh! Shiva, discussion about the strength and
weakness of deities are merely means of wasting time, Oh! Natha, it is the
absolute truth established by Lord Bhrama and deities after reviewing the
sacred scriptures which are credible.
Oh! Bhagavan, I do not consider anything desirable in the three worlds,
let me have that happiness and sorrows as predestined, let my intellect always
ponder on those two lotus feet which surpasses the beauty of fully blossomed
lotus flower. Oh! Lord, I have been into
various tasks of low standards with an object to earn livelihood, I am offering
a smallest portion at your lotus feet; therefore I am a greatest sinner to
you. Oh! Sadhashiva, you are
omnipresent, kindly pardon me for all my mistakes, kindly alleviate my sorrows
and grief and I am completely worn out and helpless in the unfathomable ocean
of Samsara, Oh! Lord , I shall sincerely
surrender to your lotus feet I have no shelter other than you. Sri Athmarpana Sthuthi was composed by Sri
Appayya Dheekshithar completely absorbed in the lotus feet of Lord Shiva in a
state of unconsciousness, Oh! Kripanidhe, kindly protects us I am helpless and
I shall sincerely surrender to your lotus feet and offer the above verses in
praise you.
