BTW can you explain about the importance of this sloka. Muruga Saranam With Best Regards Meyyappan S On 9/26/07, Patricia Jay <patriciajay2000 wrote: Hi.

Guest guest Posted September 30, 2007 Report Share Posted September 30, 2007 Thank you Mr Meyappan! Once again, I'm inspired by your commitment and interest in the group's spiritual goals. I shall certainly go to the link you have indicated. Margabandhu sloka was composed by Sri Adi Sankaracharya and it means "The Companion on The Journey (or Path)". Marga = Path and Bandhu = Close and Trusted Companion. At a very basic level, people chant this sloka when they are undertaking a long journey. At another level, I personally feel its for life itself. Because Life is a long journey. Many unforeseen problems, many kinds of people and so on. So I believe that chanting this sloka will invoke Lord Shiva to be by my side even in everyday life. At a cosmic level, we know when a person comes to the end of his life as a mortal, then Lord Shiva is the deity to whom prayers are offered. So chanting this prayer during one's lifetime will convey to Lord Shiva to be the companion even in the afterlife. For your convenience, I'm attaching the English translation (and also the English script). By the way, I got this same version from one very helpful group member in this group!

Guest guest Posted October 1, 2007 Report Share Posted October 1, 2007 Muruga Saranam Dear Patricia Madam.. Thanks for that wonderful explanation. Yes He is the Only Companion throughout the journey of life and after. Often we need to reiterate that to ourselves and recitation of hymns keep us nearer to Him whenever we drift away.

Guest guest Posted October 2, 2007 Report Share Posted October 2, 2007 Dear Mr Meyappan You're welcome. I have also been enriched enormously by your many contributions in this group's message board. By the way, I have to correct an error: Margabandhu Sloka was written by Appaya Dikshitar, but I had indicated that the composer was Sri Adi Shankaracharya.
