NamaskArams or salutations to Lord Sambhu, who is eternal, who has the three

Gunas or qualities as his body, who has won over the three cities, who is

the fame of Katyayani, who is embodiment of truth, who is the first to have

a family, who appears I the minds of the sages as personification knowledge,

who defeats the three worlds by Maya, who dances at the end of all the

Vedas, who is fond of dancing in the evening and who has matted hair.

na thvE vaaham jaathu naasam na thvam ne mE janaadhipaa: |

na rchaiva na bhavishyaama: sarvE vayamatha: param ||

says the saasthra. Accordingly there was no time when sarvEswara was not

and there will be no time when he will not be, what then can we say of the

present! Thus the vasthu that can have no destruction in the kaalathrayam

called the past, the present and the future is called Nithya vasthu. Vasthu

means poruL. So that paramporuL is none other than ParamEswara!

That Parameswara with sathwa guna remains as Vishnu swaroopan, with rajO

guna remains as Brahma swaroopan and with thamO guna as rudhra swaroopan and

keeps doing srishti, sthithi and layam. Also he does dhwamsam of the three

sareeras called sthula, sookshma and kaaraNa sareeras. Moreover in respect

of the praaNis who are governed by the sabhdham called 'I' (aham, naan) he

teaches them aathma thathwa. Moreover he remains the phala swaroopi of

Parvathi's thapas. Besides he, cutting across the three kaalas remains the

void (thrikaala paricchedha soonyan). At the same time he shines as the

sathya swaroopan and rakshaanukooli of sakala praaNis in the chathurdasa

lOkas. Thus with Parvathi he remains the maatha and pithaa of all the

lOkas.

And indeed he is the brilliant gnaanaswaroopi in the minds of those

munijanas in their samaadhi. And he keeps the three lOkas created by the

maaya as his body. This mahEswara of the mahaa mahima roams on the sikharam

of the upanishads of the Vedas. Added to that he who did garvabhangam of the

Ganga, he who created the all powerful veerabhadra to destroy the yagna of

dhaksaprajaadhipathi shows his gaambeeryam with his jataa. As if these are

not enough, he is fond of dancing in the evening to do anugraham to the

bakthas.

To such a mangalaswaroopi Sambu let my namaskaarams be.

Sambo MahaadEva!
