Bowing down to Lord Siva on this Blessed Day

[Guest guest]

We are bowing to you who is established as the Father of the Universe,

Siva. We are bowing to you who destroys all enmity and violence. We

bow to you who are eternal life, the form of the attitude of truth, the

welfare of the perceivable universe, the form of increase in the

universe, the supreme meaning of wealth and the discipline by which it

is attained. We bow to you the grantor of the greatest welfare for

all, who give the capacity for all to act in truth, who empowers all

with the intrinsic nature of peace, and the attitude of godliness, we

bow to you.

 

 

Rudrastadhyayi, Chap 6 vs 9

Swami Satyananda Saraswati and

Swami Vittalananda Saraswati

 

Peace, Joy and Happiness to all on this beautiful and Blessed Shivatri.

[Guest guest]

O ocean of mercy, O Master of bound creatures, I have imagined a

throne of precious stones for You, cool water for You to bathe in,

divine robes adorned with many jewels, sandalwood paste mixed with

musk to anoint Your body, jasmine and champaka flowers and bilva

leaves, rare incense, and a shining flame. Accept all these, which I

have imagined in my heart for You, O God.

Hi All,

 

I was wondering at what time the Shivratri celebrations start at Devi

Mandir. I remember from last year that five abhishekhas were

performed during the night. Will that the case this year also.

 

Thank you

Ruchi
