Oh Lord Shiva who is omnipresent, my mind always wanders in the forest of

delusion. It dances on the mountain of kucha of young women and wanders in

all four directions with evil desires. Oh Lord who begs with the skull in

hand, please take into your control the ever wandering monkey of my mind by

tying it up with the rope of love.

" mana Eva manushyaanaam karaNaam bandhamOkshayO: "

 

According to our saasthra the mind that wanders in vishyas such as women is

the root of one one's entanglement in the samsaara and the mind that has

anchored itself in Sivadhyaanam is the cause of his releasse from samsaara.

A man does not need another enemy when he has a mind set at liberty.

Therefore manOnigraham alone is his road to release. A person instead of

training himself in the manonigraham is impelled by chapala buddhi and

thinks only of sporting with women as the ultimate pursuit. This leads him

to aasaa paasams such as kaamam, krOdham, lObam, mOham, madham, maathsaryam,

sthree, puthran, dhanam etc that branch off endlessly. This is the way one

loses his vivEkam.

 

Hey! Parameswara! My mind dwells in the dense forest of agnaana. And it is

losing its vivekam. You have to turn my mind away from avivekam and make it

do smaranam of your lotus feet. So it is incumbent on you to tie my mind

which has become a vicious monkey, to your lotus feet with the rope called

Bhakthi. Hey! PrabhO! You pinched off the fifth head of Brahma and is using

his skull as the begging bowl. May be if you take my mind which is the

monkey with you, people amused at the sight and would give you alms

generously!
