Oh Lord Shiva, Oh consort of BhavAni, forget the doubts in your mind that

" My feet are very soft; your mind is very hard; " If so how was it possible

for you to enter the mountains and move around ?

 

*Commentary

 

*hE siva = Hey! Mangalaswaroopa!

hE bhavaaneesa = Hey! BhavaanipathE!

thE = your;

charaNow = lotus feet;

athimrudhulou = very soft;

mama = my;

mana: = mind;

athikatinam = very hard;

ithi = like this;

vichikithsaam = doubt;

samthyaja = leave out root and stem;

thathaa = that very hard;

girhou = in the mountain;

vEsma = living there;

katham = how;

aaseeth(u) = happened (you tell me).

 

Hey! BhavaanipathE! Hey! ParamEswara! Hey! ParamporuE! You are thinking

that your feet are soft and my mind is hard. I have to ask you to give up

that thought. You are saying that it is difficult for you to roam on hard

grounds. I won't believe this. If it really difficult for you to walk on

hard surface then would you be going in strides on the difficult terrains of

Kailash? Therefore you should not hesistate to roam in my mind. Then only

my janma will get its chaapalyam.

 

Aum Namasivaaya!
