Thirunavukkarasar’s Thirumurai – (5.31) sung at Thiruvanaikka

 
 

Jaya Jaya Sankara Hara Hara Sankara !!
 
 
 
 

 
 
 
 
 
 
Konai Kavi Kulirntha Manathayarth
Thenai Kavi Unnar Sila Theenargal
Anaikkavil Ammanai Anaigilar
Unai Kavi Uzhindharvar Umarey
 
 
Whoever does not make a visit to the scared shrine of Thiruvanaikka and whoever does not carry the supreme Lord Shiva in their hearts would be refused to have the supreme bliss, the elixir of nectar of Shivananda.  Whoever does not venerate the Lord of Thiruvanaikka would be treated as dumb aimlessly wandering with their corporeal form in vain.
 
Thiruvanaikka – Thirumurai (5.31.2)
Thirugu Sinthayai Theerthu Semmai Seithu
Paruki Uralai Patri Padham Arindhu
Uruki Neibavarkku Unam Ondru Indriye
Arugu Nindridum Anaikka Annaley.
 
Those who give up the wickedness from their heart and venerate the supreme Lord Shiva faithfully with the heart dissolved in the supreme bliss of Shivananda would be protected by the Lord of Thiruvanaikka and would remain close to their heart to remove grief and agonies.

Oh! Supreme Lord Shiva who performs the glorious cosmic dance even in the hours of darkness of the night when all the living beings are in slumber, Oh! King of south of Pandya Kingdom and the Cosmic dancer in the City of Thillai who is capable to destroy the mortals where the five impure senses resides, in that way releases worldly bondages as well.

Sri Shivananda Lahari !! Lyrics & Its meaning 41 – 50

Jaya Jaya Sankara Hara Hara Sankara !!

Oh! Supreme Lord Shiva! Defeater of Lord Yama, I earnestly pray to bestow me with the qualities like Dhyanam/meditation, Shravanam/listen, Chant your holy names, Pradhakshina/circumambulation, Namaskaram/prostration, performance of daily rituals and efficient Panchedriyas/ears, eyes, mind, tongue, hands and legs to perform all the above duties with utmost devotion and dedication.  Oh! Lord Mruthyunjaya, command me to do the above and show me the righteous path.
Oh! Supreme Lord Shiva, who is inseparable from Goddess Sri Parvati, I earnestly pray to reside in the fortress of my heart, righteousness as its protective moat, valorous as its wall, numerous virtues as its army, perfect sense organs as its doors, eternal wisdom and knowledge as materials.
Oh! Lord of Mount Kailash, I earnestly pray to reside in my heart which is like woodland full of innumerable wild animals like ego, jealous, pride and endless desires.  Oh! Lord Adi Kiratha/Primeval hunter, hunt down all those immoral qualities in me and take pleasure in that amusing hunt.
Oh! Supreme Lord Shiva, who has five faces and white complexioned enchanting body, carrying illusion/deer in his hand, slayer of Gajasura and Vygrasura dwells in Mount Himalaya and in my heart as well.  Therefore I have no reason for fear.
Oh! Mind which is efficiently flying like a bird, stop your aimless roaming and nest under the lotus feet of the Supreme Lord Shankara, worship the tree which has branches as Veda and Scriptures as its stem venerated by the Brahmins.  In this way, attain the eternal happiness capable to eradicate all the grief and sorrows, ultimately enjoy the fruit of ambrosia.
Oh! Mind, resides in the fortress like lotus feet of Lord Shiva who is the consort of Goddess Sri Girija, the finger nails are capable to spread greatness of luster, sparkle with the glorious deposition of nectar, the red lotus feet shines like rubies, this is the ultimate place where the ascetics finds peace and immense pleasure, therefore you sport with devotion at your own will.
Oh! mind, the heart like garden unites with the spring like meditation at the lotus feet of Supreme Lord Shiva which results in the falling off dried leaves like sins; numerous creepers like devotion shoot up with abundance of virtues like buds, Vedic hymns as its flowers and fragrances as qualities, nectar appears in the flowers as the eternal wisdom and its fruit as the knowledge of Brahma.
Oh! Mind, why do you wish for invaluable things and wander around, ultimately land in the puddle? Rest on the lotus feet of Lord Shiva which is the abode of happiness and eternal peace where deities and Rishis sought for and worshipped by the Brahmins, capable to eradicate all the sins and provide virtues.
Oh! Lord Shiva, the creeper of devotion filled with the ambrosia of happiness raised from the channel around the lotus feet of the Lord, after possessing support and eventually grows with branches and sub branches, spread through the thatch of the supercilious mind and cleanses it without sins and cultivates intrinsic worth.  Consequently it provides me the eternal bliss, the fruit of liberation from the cycles of birth and death.
I venerate the image of Lord Mallikarjuna who resides at mount Srigri, who performs the cosmic dance at the time of Sandhya/beginning of the evening, occupies the summit of Veda & Upanishad, always affectionate to his consort Goddess Sri Brahmarambika, elegant with the fragrances of virtues well known, adorned the venomous serpent as jewels on his body, worshipped by the deities and sages and remains in the embrace of Goddess Sri Parvati/Sivaa.
