|| Jai Sriman Narayana ||
Sri Lingodhbhava Sthothram was composed by
Sage Vashishta, praising the splendor of Lord Shiva embodied as
Lingamoorthi would bring union with the supreme Lord Shankara who is the source
of liberation from repeated births, he is unblemished and not perceivable through senses, and
he is absolute Bhramam.
Vashishta speaks “ I shall prostrate before supreme Lord Shiva
who is embodied as Kanakalinga and Vedalinga, I shall prostrate before supreme
Lord Shiva who is embodied as Paramalinga and Vyomalinga, I shall prostrate
before supreme Lord Shiva who is embodied as
Sahasralinga and Vahnilinga, I shall prostrate before supreme Lord Shiva

Lord, eventually attained various boons.”
