|| Jai Sriman Narayana ||
|| Om Nama Shivaya ||
I shall
meditate upon Lord Vishnu who is omnipresent, attired in white majestic
garments and has the radiance of sparkling moon, he has four arms carrying
various weapons and has a joyful face, I shall earnestly pray to Lord Vishnu to
remove all our obstacles.
My
humble salutation to Maharishi Vedavyasa, who is the personification of wisdom
and intelligence, he has broad eyes that has the resemblance to the lotus leaf,
he is the cause of spreading knowledge in the whole of the Universe.
My
humble salutation to Lord Shambhu who is the consort of Goddess Uma/Umapathi,
he is the preceptor of Sura/Lords/Suraguru, he is cause of the Universe/Jagathkaranam, he is decked in
serpents as ornaments, carries deer head in hand, he is the Lord of all the
living beings/Pasoonampathi, he has Lord Surya, Lord Chandra and Lord Agni as
his eyes, he is most desirable to Lord Mukunda, he is the safe haven for
passionate devotees and provider of abundance of boon, he is Lord Shiva who is
the personification of all the auspiciousness.
Yudhishtira
said “ Oh! Pithamaha, kindly narrate the sacred names of Jagathpathi/Lord of
the Universe, Lord Shambu who has golden complexion, personified as Universe,
preceptor of the Devas and Asuras, He is the Lord of Lords, and he is primordial
and personification of auspiciousness.”
Bheeshma
Pithamaha replied “ Oh! Yudhishtira I am incapable to describe the glories of
Supreme Lord Mahadeva, he is omnipresent, he is impossible to witness with the
bare eyes.
He is the creator of Lord Bhrama, Lord Vishnu and all deities, he is the
Lord of Lords, and he is venerated by Lord Bhrama, all the deities, spirit and
others. He is superior to Prakrithi and
he is known as Purusha, he is meditated by virtuous, Sages and Rishis who is
aware of eternal truth, he is Parambhramam/omnipresent/omniscient and he is the
cause and effect. He is Deva Deva Prajapathi /Lord of Lords and all the living
beings, he strike at the foundations of Prakrithi and Purusha, ultimately
create Bhramam out of it. How it would
be possible for a human who undergoes repeated birth and death to describe the
glories of Lord of Lords? Is it capable
for a human to describe the glories of supreme Lord Parameshwara, other than
Lord Narayana who carries conch, wheel and mace? Lord Vishnu who is the knower of All, he is
highly intellectual and possess supreme qualities, unconquerable, highly
resplendent and he has auspicious eyes, he witnesses everything with his eyes
of Yogic qualities. Oh! Bharatha, King of
Kings, supreme Lord Krishna is spread
all over the Universe due to his devotion towards Lord Rudra, pleased with his
intense penance on the sacred land of Bhadharya/Badri.”
