Sage
Upamanyu continued “ Oh! Madhava, who is capable to describe the splendor and
virtues of supreme Lord Shiva whose head and foot was not able to locate by
Suras ? Even though I am incapable and
have limited knowledge and limited understanding in the usage of terminology I
shall put an effort to describe briefly about supreme Lord Shiva who is the
personification of knowledge and wisdom, with his blessings. It is impossible to eulogize or venerate him
without his grace, it was truly his blessings I could recite some of his
glories, I shall describe a few of the sacred names of Supreme Lord Shiva, who
is the cause of the Universe and primordial.
Oh! Krishna, kindly listen to the sacred names of Supreme Lord Shiva who
is the personification of wisdom and knowledge, provider of immense boon and
cause of the Universe recited by Lord Bhrama. These are a few sacred names from
the ten thousand names recited by Lord Bhrama, and these are the outcome
equivalent to churning to avail superior curd.
The quintessences of these sacred names are like gold from mine, honey
from flowers, and ghee from butter.
These sacred names are equivalent to Chathurveda, can be understood and
memorize with great effort, it washes off all the sins of the worshipper. Oh! Tiger among men, kindly listen to those 1008 sacred names of
Supreme Lord Shiva, who is the soul in all living beings and has remarkable prowess, he has greatest
authority on all living beings and capable to fulfill all the desires of
worshipper.
