MAHA MRTYUNJAYA MANTRA Om
MAHA MRTYUNJAYA MANTRA
Om Tryambakam Yajamahe Sugandhim Pushti Vardhanam Urva Rukamiva Bandhanan Mrityor Mukshiya Ma-amritath
“Om. We worship the three-eyed One (Lord Siva) who is fragrant and who nourishes all beings; may He liberate me from death, for the sake of Immortality, even as the pumpkin is severed from its bondage (of the creeper).
" The two great Manthras in the Veda are Ghayatri & Mrtyunjaya. Mrtyunjaya mantra is chanted so that armor of divine positive energy is created around you which will prevent negative forces affecting you.
Have you seen some people, when somebody says an unpleasant statement they get very, very hurt and that is because when you don’t have a positive energy field and somebody making an unpleasant statement, it can affect you deeply.
there are two negative forces which can affect oneself.
One negative force is which you create by wrong thinking.
Secondly, negative forces from others and these are the two forces which affect one.
By chanting Mrtyunjaya Mantra you create a powerful energy field so that one’s negative forces and others’ negative forces don’t affect you.
Our mind is like a broadcasting station we go on generating vibrations. And if thoughts are positive then you generate positive vibration. If thoughts are negative; you get negative vibration.
So if somebody is thinking negatively about you then negative forces will affect you by which you get depleted.
By chanting Mrtyunjaya Mantra the negative forces from within yourself and negative forces externally can be nullified.
This great mantra Mrtyunjaya is extremely powerful because of vibration it creates and hence if you listen to the mantra it has got musical notes and these musical notes create a very powerful vibration.
Now try to understand the meaning of this profound mantra which is generally chanted when you are in difficulties, because in difficulty your energy is deleated and you have to energise yourself by creating the positive energy field around you.
The mantra goes thus Trayambakam; this mantra is dedicated to lord Siva. See Lord Siva has two eyes and also a third eye above the two eyes which is the place called Agnya chakra where the Hindus put Bindu so Lord Siva is likened to a person who has three eyes so Trayambakam is addressed to the the three eyed Lord Siva.
Now what does it mean Three Eyed Lord Siva, the two eyes everybody has got.
But a person who is enlightened, who is wise has got the third eye. The eye of understanding, the eye of intuition.
Through the eye of intuition one experiences the world very differently. A person who is in an ignorant state of being will look at the world in an ordinary eye but the wise person will look at the world and life from the third eye as Lord Siva is called “TRAYAMBAKAM” three eyed Lord.
Now the two eyes represent the male and female energy in an individual if you look at the Hindu Concept there is a concept called “Aardha Naarishvara” where the half is called Lord Siva and other half is called Parwathy. When Siva and Parwathi are joined together it is called “Aardha Naarishvara” or “Poorna Purusha”. What does it mean by that-- there is a male energy in us and female energy in us? Because every individual is born by our parents.
Parents being mother and father so each one of us has a male energy & female energy.
Now the two eyes represent the male and female energy of Lord Siva. Now the male energy represents Logic and the female energy represents Love. The male energy always accomplishment oriented and the female energy are receptive oriented.
Male energy is more in the masculine sense of achieving, female energy is very, earthly.
Now these are two energy fields, Logic and Love, your achievement oriented and deep acceptability are merged, you will find when they are merged, immediately, there is transference of consciousness and the third eye starts opening up in individual so Trayambakam Yajamahe means we worship one you develop a worshiped Attitude towards existence.
Yajamahe we worship the Lord. Learn to worship the Lord, for creation being an expression of the Lord so that Lord exists in and through the whole creation, hence in all our pooja you have to always do Stuthi praising the Lord it is called Stuthi. Lalitha Sahasranama, Vishnu Sahasranam.
There are multiple ways to praise the Lord, why praise the Lord? Because the more you praise the lord not that HE has to change but you have to change. The more you appreciate the Lord you will develop an appreciating attitude towards life.
So all our Yajamahe we worship is always the Stuthi or praise towards the Lord. Once you develop this attitude then you will start appreciating your children, your wife, appreciating the whole beauty of existence and through that appreciation you will find the poetry of the infinite will be seen in very intituvely. Sugandhim means the fragrance being Lord Siva representing whose consciousness has become “Sham Mangalam Karothy Idhi” Idy Shivaha means, Sham Mangalam That which is creating auspiciousness and this Suganthim being, see a person is fragrant if his energy field is very pleasant and beautiful. If you look at the egoistic person, his whole energy stinks but if you look at the person who is not egoistic, you will find that his energy field is very fragrant. In Sanskrit you say from Ahamkara you have to transform into Asmitha. Ahamkara means egotistic eye, Asmitha means innocent eye. Once there is innocent eye there is fragrance of well being around you; a flower spreads fragrance irrespective who goes to the flower. A non-egoistic person who represents Asmitha which is always Suganthim is always fragrant. “Trayambakam Yajamahe Sugandhim Pushti Vardhanam”. Pushti means Nourishment, Vardhanam means Growth. So therefore constantly nourishing yourself in the field of growing being. One should always be constantly growing. Growing where? Not growing in money, in power, not in name, not in fame but growing in silence. The real growth of an individual is in the phase of silence, so therefore all mantras end in “Shanthi Shanthi” so that real growth “Pushti Vardhanam” means the more you are silent the more relaxed in life you will be; very silent and relaxed. Look jat the lotus as an example. The Lotus exists in the muddy water but from the muddy water it grows into such a beautiful flower. So too, the muddy waters of the world are anger, hatred, jealousy and cut throat competition. We are like a Lotus in that muddy waters. If we can remain calm and serene, thankful-- then we will find that we are really growing physically, emotionally, intellectually and spiritually. From that relaxation and from that silence wisdom will dawn on us as we become calm and serene In that order of intelligence your experience of life will be from wisdom and not from sheer dried knowledge and dried logic. So “Trayambakam Yajamahe” Like a pumpkin how it exists attached to a creeper but at the same time when it ripens and detaches leaves no scar or evidence of attachment. It would seem that both the pumpkin and creeper exist separately in the world. One should similarly be in the world but not attach oneself to the attractions of the world. If one can live in the world as referenced by the pumkin and the creeper then one will be able to overcome death…MRTYUNJAYA…VICTORY OVER DEATH. So can we live in the world without being affected by the world is what is meant by expression. “Urvaarukamiva”: Help me to gain immortality by liberating me from death. Death happens when you identify. Look at a river, the river goes on flowing, flowing and therefore theriver does not stop. It just goes on flowing and ultimately it merges into Ocean. If water becomes like an ice then ice can never be flexible. So can we be like a river flowing without any attachment and then find mergence with the ocean and hence. “Ma-amritath”: Bondage is identifying with all that we see and do. Immortality is not identifying with anything. This unidentification which frees us, makes us understand that nothing is ours, everything is HIS and when we have the deep trust we will never identify with the dualities of the world--you will never identify with your happiness or with your unhappiness, your success or with your failure. This is the whole meaning of this Mantra. Now how should you practice? Early in morning having had your bath, take a glass of water and sprinkle especially aroundyour house in and through your house by chanting Mrtyunjaya Mantra. Because, understand if there are negative people also there are negative souls and these negative souls called “Sushma Sarira” can affect a person if there being people who are bad. These can be souls who are bad so the practice is to take water- energize the water with Mrtyunjaya Mantra and “Puroshana” sprinkle it through out the house so that negative souls don’t affect an individual by chanting Mrtyunjaya mantra. Having thus energized your house sit down and chant Mrtyunjaya and create a powerful protective energy field around you. And then you will find that negative people will not affect you and negative souls also don’t affect you. Thus the deep belief is that you chant Mrtyunjaya Mantra-- there is armor of divine energy that is created so that you won’t be a victim of negative forces within you and outside you. May God Bless You All, Om Sri Sai Ram Thank you Ranta Mathieaparanam Attachment Unavailable This attachment may have been removed or the person who shared it may not have permission to share it with you.

Bondage
1 5 Swami Dayanand Saraswati (Arsha Vidya Gurukulam) "Whatever I don’t want to have, but I can’t get rid of is bondage. In Sanskrit, it is called बन्ध / bandha or बन्धन / bandhana. It is derived from the Sanskrit root word, bandh, to bind. The bondage itself is bandha. It means you are bound. One cannot extricate oneself from certain things, which he or she wants to get rid of.What is it that one does not want? Pain and sorrow, limitation, fear, old age and being subject to disease and mortality are just a few things that most of us do not want. When one doesn’t love certain things or doesn’t like certain things, but cannot get rid of them, they become bondage for the person. It is that wanting to get out of something and not being able to. I want to get out of this struggle to become happy but I cannot rid myself of the struggle. I want to be free from insecurity, but I find myself helplessly insecure. That’s bondage. Being insecure is bondage. Being bound by time is bondage. Being bound by various limitations is bondage. Who is it that feels this bondage? Vedanta discusses it this way. The physical body does not feel the bondage. Neither does the mind. The mind is a karana / करण; it is simply a means or instrument. The person or the ego feels the bondage. No matter who the person is, wherever there is “I” sense, there is a sense of bondage also. That I want to be different from being what I am is bondage. In Vedanta, we say that a life of becoming is a life of bondage. In one word, we call it संसार / samsara . “I am a संसारी / samsari” means I am not acceptable to myself as I am now. That is संसार / samsara. A संसारिन् / samsarin is the one who has संसार / samsara. This is the one who appears to become a संसारिन् / samsarin because—he or she wants to become. I cannot but struggle to become because I am not acceptable to myself as I am. I struggle to become that person in whom I can be free, meaning in whom I find total acceptance, complete acceptability. Suppose I become that person in terms of wealth, in terms of health or in terms of any accomplishment that I gain. Then afterwards, once again, I want to become. Thus, I am always in the process of becoming. That is संसार / samsara. This ongoing act of becoming itself reveals that there is no way of becoming free. You don’t become free, because the very fact that you want to become reveals that you are not free. The attempt to become free is a denial of freedom, according to Vedanta, because it betrays a self non-acceptance. We can say that this is the original sin or the original problem. That constant wanting to become or needing to become somebody else is the original problem. And in that somebody else, I expect to see myself as a free person, free from want, who won’t need to become any more."

There is one sentence that I wanted to touch upon though, mainly for clarification of readers : "In consonance with the controversial guru Osho, this Swami of Shankaracharya order says that institutionalized religion is a problem" It is true that organized "religion" is a problem, then again, listening to other talks of pūjya swāmiji, he does not accept religion as a sensible construct to define dharma. So while on the surface level his conclusions may appear similar, what he is arriving at may elaborate the nuanced ideas. A friend once wrote the following: Due to western education becoming the norm in India since the times of the British, it has become a norm for even Indians to see their own tradition in terms of western categories like culture and religion, instead of rightly viewing not just our society but also others in terms of our paradigm of dharma. Now that we are independent of foreign rule for the past 65 years, we should also take the next rightful step of reclaiming our own categories and using them to view the world. So what is dharma? Dharma literally means that which supports or upholds or maintains the order of the Universe (called Rta). This is a much more far reaching categorization than religion or culture. While religion in the western sense typically refers to an institutionalized framework where a church maintains a list of commendments to follow, dharma is a more deeper principle and is not applicable to humans alone, but pertains to everything in existence. So for instance, what upholds an atom or maintains its existence? It is that the sub-atomic particles in the atom are adhering to their dharma (of doing what they ought to be doing). When we come to the human realm, we all humans have our own social identities. Not one, but several. We carry these as various kinds of labels, depending on where and to what parents we were born, what we studied, what professions we chose, what organizations we choose to belong to, what kind of relationships we enter into with other human beings etc. For instance, we all would be, in relation to other people, husbands and wives, brothers and sisters, sons and daughters, fathers and mothers, friends, co-workers, fellow citizens, and so on, at the same time. We could belong to birth based groups (jAtis) or membership based groups (sanghas). What “upholds” all these labels then is the dharma of human beings. My brotherhood to my sibilings is upheld by my properly adhering to brotherly dharma. My sonhood to my parents is upheld by my properly adhering to filial dharma. My citizenship to my country is upheld by my adhering to the dharmas of the citizenry and so on and so forth. Thus, the separation between religion and culture would be a meaningless thing in our viewpoint, because dharma encompasses both these western categories. So, a westerner might consider his eating etiquette at a dinner table as belonging to the realm of culture and a secular act, while going to church on sunday with his family as a religious act. But from our viewpoint, both are acts of dharma – the former a dharma to be followed at the dinner table as by adhering to it, he/she is upholding good relations with those who are eating with him (as it is expected behaviour at the table) and the latter upholds the institution called the church, which is a membership based group he/she belongs to.

Prayer to lord shiva
Oh Lord Shiva, "Lo Paranaam Hai Mangalkaari, Jagdeeshwar Tripuraari, Sancha Vaar Do Deen Jano Ko, He Bhola Bhandari". Oh Lord of all Lords, accept my salutations oh giver of happiness and the Lord of the entire world. Grant Security to the poor, oh Lord Bhandhari. Today we have come to you for mercy, please save us. "Mrityu Tere Charan Dubaaye, Vishaa, Dhar Ant Me Khele, Bhoot aur Preet Nikat Nahi Aye Shiva Shiva Naam Jo Lele". Death is suppressed under your feet and even poison has no effect in the end. Ghosts and goblins cannot come near, when your name is being chanted. Why should we then have fear in our hearts, when we know that you are going to save us? " Hay Gyaneshwar, Shakti Shaali, Arazi Kare Sawaali, Ham Hai Phool Tere Bagiya Ke, Tu Hai Baag Ka Maali". Oh Lord of learning, we have a question for you to answer. We are the flowers in your garden and you are the gardener. Make us eligible to do your worship and take us under your protection. Oh Lord Shiva, who is the Lord of the universe, who is extremely attractive, giver of happiness, shield us from sorrows and bring us unto the shore. Praises be unto you. May Lord Shiva continue to shower his richest blessings upon you in this month of Kaarthik and may he bestow strength, prosperity and happiness. Shiva Shankar Bhagwan Ki Jai!!!!!. Damaru Wale Bhagwan Ki Jai!!! Natraja Swami Ki Jai!! Namoh Parvati Pataye Ki Jai!!! Har Har Mahadeva Shambhu!!! Gangadhara Ki Jai!!! Someshwara Ki Jai!!! Rameshwara Ki Jai!! Jataadhara Ki Jai!!

Pradosh
Pradosh, also referred as Pradosha Vrata and Shiva Pradosham, is an auspicious day dedicated to Lord Shiva. Pradosh occurs twice in a Hindu month – on the 12th day during the waning and waxing phase of the moon. August 2014 Pradosh dates are August 8 and August 22. Both the pradosh falls on Saturday or Shanivar and there is known as Shani Pradosh. As per traditional calendar followed in North India, both the Pradosh are in Shravan month this makes it very auspicious.
Some Shiva devotees only fast during the Pradosh falling during the waning phase of moon.
The strictness of the fast depends on the devotee. The fast is broken in the evening after prayers. The puja and worship is done in the evening.
The Pradosh period is in the evening from 1.5 hours before sunset and 1 hour after sunset.
Most devotees make it a point to be present at a Shiva temple during this period.
Pradosh Vrat is observed on the 13th day of a fortnight and there are two Pradosham in a Hindu month. Lord Shiva and Goddess Parvati are worshipped in the evening during twilight on this day. In some regions, the day is dedicated to Nataraja form of Shiva. The fasting on this day is observed for success, peace and fulfillment of desires. It is said that mere darshan of any of the one form of Shiva removes ignorance.
Pradosham is observed when the Trayodashi Tithi is there during the twilight period. This is important.
The importance of Pradosha Vrata and how to observe it is narrated in the Skanda Purana.
There are two methods of fasting on the day. Some people observe a 24-hour fast which includes not sleeping during night. Another method is fasting from sunrise till sunset and after Shiva puja in the evening the fast is broken.
Pradosham is the twilight period just before sunset and after sunset. Pujas and prayers are performed during this period. Many people during this period spend the time in a Shiva temple or listening to the glory of Shiva.
In the evening, an hour before sunset the devotee takes bath and prayers are offered to Lord Shiva, Goddess Parvathi, Ganesha, Kartik and Nandi. After the initial prayers, Lord Shiva is worshipped in the form of a Kalasha (sacred pot). The Kalasha filled with water is covered with darbha grass and a lotus is drawn on the pot.
Another form of worship is the puja of Shivling. The shivling is bathed with water and Bilva leaves are offered. Some people use a painting or picture of Shiva for worship. It is said that offering Bilva leaves on Pradosham is highly auspicious.
After this people listen to the Pradosha Vrata Katha or story or read chapters from Shiva Purana. Then the Maha Mrityunjaya Mantra is recited 108 times.
After this the water used in the puja ceremony is given as ‘Prasad’ along with sacred ash. The ash is applied on the forehead.
It is said that just lighting a single lamp during Pradosham period is enough to please Lord Shiva and the act is highly rewarding. Majority of Shiva devotees have a darshan of Shiva during Pradosham in a nearby temple.

Churning the mind
* The Devas and Asuras represent the positives and negatives respectively of one's personality. The participation of both the Devas and the Asuras signifies that when one is seeking bliss through spiritual practice, one has to integrate and harmonize both the positive and negative aspects and put both the energies to work for the common goal.
* The ocean is the mind or the human consciousness. The mind is like an ocean while the thoughts and emotions are the waves in the ocean.
* Mandhara, the mountain symbolizes concentration. The word Mandhara is made up of two words Mana (mind) and Dhara (a single line) which means holding the mind in one line. This is possible only by concentration.
* Mount Mandhara was upheld by Lord Vishnu as a Kurma (tortoise), not mentioned in the story above. The tortoise here symbolizes the withdrawal of the senses into oneself (just as a tortoise withdraws its head into its shell) as one practices mental concentration and meditation or contemplation.
* Vasuki symbolizes desire. Vasuki used in the churning of the ocean denotes that the Devas and the demons held desire (to seek immortality) as a rope and churned the mind with the help of concentration and withdrawal of the senses. Desire, if not controlled will overpower and destroy an individual.
* The Halahala poison symbolizes suffering and pain (counter-reaction of the mind and body) that one undergoes at the beginning of spiritual sadhana (practice). When the mind is subjected to intense concentration, the first thing that comes out of the process is intense suffering and great inner turmoil. These must be resolved otherwise further progress is not possible.
* Lord Shiva symbolizes the ascetic principle. His role in this story as the consumer of poison suggests that one can deal with the early problems of spiritual life by cultivating the qualities of Lord Shiva, namely, courage, initiative, willingness, discipline, simplicity, austerity, detachment, compassion, pure love and asceticism.
* The 14 different types of rubies that came out during the churning stand for the psychic or spiritual powers (Siddhis) which one gains as s/he progresses spiritually from stage to stage. The seeker should be careful about these powers as they can hamper her/his progress unless s/he uses them judiciously, not for selfish gains but for others' welfare. This is the reason why the gods and demons distributed these objects as they did not want to lose sight of their original aim which was to gain immortality.
* The Amrit, the nectar of immortality that eventually came out for which the gods and demons have decided to churn the ocean, symbolizes the ultimate achievement of the goal of self-realization.

Christianity
All religions are one
and are derived from Vedic Sanatan dharma
All religions are one
and are derived from Vedic Sanatan dharma.
----------------------------
Famous historian P.N. Oak claims
Word Vatican came from "Vatika"
"Christia-nity came from "Krishna-neeti"
(Chrisn-nity - "ethics of Krishna or the way of Krishna")
"Abrahm" came from "Bramha"
Oak claims that both Christianity and Islam originated as distortions of "Vedic" beliefs.
Well, his claims seem true.
In sanskrit Vatika word is used to describe a place, such as Ananda-Vatika, Ashrama-Vatika, Yagna-Vatika etc.
Such words and discoveries prove that the Vatican was a Hindu (Vedic) religious center before its incumbent was forced to accept Christianity from 1st century AD.
Also, according to some reports, a Shivling was found during the excavation and is kept for display at Gregorian Etruscan Museum in Rome.
Hindustan indeed was Virat.

How to identify one’s Guru?
When you have identified the siṣyā in you, everyone becomes a Guru. – Kṛṣṇa was always there, but only as a sakha (friend) of Arjuna, and became a Guru, when Arjuna discovered the siṣya in him.
Definiton of SDSji – “One who makes you see – that you are the whole”.
Guru is one who handles śāstra as a pramāṇa, and creates a context for the words that he uses and makes sure that you understand his words (which are the words of the śāstra), the way he intended it (which is the way the śāstra also intended it).
Upaniṣad defines Guru as śrotriyam brahmaniṣṭham – but we cannot call him wise, for that means we are judging him based on our own understanding of what wisdom is.
Some additional pointers given by PSDSji in his commentary on verse 4.19 from Bhagavad Gītā.
i. A Guru teaches not because he wants to teach, but because someone wants to learn.
ii. A Guru should not suffer from a burning desire to teach.
iii. A Guru should teach only because he wants to contribute and share what he has, and that too with someone who needs it only.
iv. A Guru should teach only because there are some people to listen; that’s all. Not for any other reason.
v. A Guru should not teach thinking that he has to save the world. It is Īśvara’s job to save the world, and he should not appoint himself as an intermediary for Īśvara. If we ever find him talking about saving the world and people from delusion, and Vedānta is the means to save the world, then he is not your Guru.
vi. A Guru is free from any kind of saṁkalpa (resolve). He should not be making big plans about teaching, reaching the mass, correcting the world etc.
vii. A Guru should teach not expecting anything at all in return, even your understanding.
viii. A Guru is characterized by no guilt, hurt and self-condemnation.
ix. A Guru will be totally free – free from will and wants – characterized by leisure and happiness – at no time you will see him under pressure.
x. A Guru should be free in the midst of people, and also without them. There should be no lonliness. He should not be at a loss for want of something to do.
xi. A Guru should be some one who can be trusted – no negative reports about him.
xii. A Guru should be one who does not judge you – you should be able to be totally free with him, in exposing yourself, as you are, your weaknesses et al, without the fear of being judged.
xiii. A Guru must be one who understands you – one who is able to relate to you, empathize with you.
xiv. A Guru is one who accepts you totally as you are – he has no complaints even if you don’t change, even if you make the same mistakes, even if you are adamant.
xv. A Guru’s words have to ring true to you. His words should not be self-contradictory, and his conduct has to be aligned with his words.

MEANING OF MANTRA OM SHIVOHAM SHIVOHAM
========
Om.
Bhairava Rudraaya Maha Rudraaya Kaala Rudraaya Kalpanta Rudraaya Veera Rudraaya Rudra Rudraaya Gora Rudraaya Aghora Rudraaya Maarthanda Rudraaya Anda Rudraaya Brahmanda Rudraaya Chanda Rudraaya Prachanda Rudraaya Thanda Rudraaya Soora Rudraaya Veera Rudraaya Bhava Rudraaya Bheema Rudraaya Athala Rudraaya Vithala Rudraaya Suthala Rudraaya Mahathala Rudraaya Rasathala Rudraaya Taltala Rudraaya pathala Rudraaya Namo Namaha
Hara hara hara hara hara hara hara hara Mahadev…
Hara is a famous name of Lord Siva. Hara means destroyer. Mahadev is also a very prominent name of Siva meaning the lord of lords.
Om Sivoham.. Om Sivoham.. Rudra naamam bajeham..
(Sivoham – Siva aham – I am Siva.)
Om. I am Siva. I am reciting the name of Siva.
Veerabadraya agni nethraya gora samhaaraka..
Veerabadra is a form of Siva. It means brave hunter (Thanx to starglider for suggesting the meaning). Agni nethraya – The one with fire emanating from the eyes. Gora samhaaraka - The one who destroys brutally.
Sakala lokaaya sarva boothaya Sathya saakshatkara..
Sakala lokaaya - The one who is present in the entire world (world here means all the seven lokas and not just the earth. For the seven lokas - look at the comments section - the comment by Madhavan).
Sarva boothaya – The one who is present in everyone/everything. Sathya saakshatkara – The one who remains to be the ultimate truth (Sathya Saakshatkara: Image of Truth. Saakshat means image/form - Thanx to Starglider again for suggesting the meaning)
(chorus) Sambo sambo Sankara..
Sambu is also a famous name of Siva. Sankara =sam+kara. Sam = good. Kara= the doer. Sankara- The doer of good.
Om Sivoham.. Om Sivoham.. Rudra naamam bajeham..
(Chorus) Hara hara hara hara hara hara hara hara Mahadev…
Sri Rudhra mantras.
‘Namah somaya cha Rudraya cha Namastamraya charunaya cha Nama shangaya cha pashupataye cha Nama ugraya cha bhimaya cha Namo Agrevadhaya cha dure vadhaya cha Namo hantre cha haniyase cha
Namo vrukshebhyo harikeshebhyo Nama staraya Namash shambhave cha mayo bhave cha Namah shankaraya cha mayaskaraya cha
Namah Shivaya cha shivataraya cha’
These form the crux of Sri Rudhra, a powerful set of hymns about Lord Siva, present in the Yajur vedha. There is a famous theory about Sri Rudhra given by the paramaacharya of kanchi, Sri Chandrasekarendra Saraswathi Sankaracharya swami. Generally Vedhas are referred as 3 (trayee Veda). The Yajur Veda is in the middle. If we check what’s found in the middle of Yajur Veda, it’s the Rudhra hymns. They are present in the fourth chapter of the total seven chapters. If we further ponder in to what’s found in the middle of Rudhra, it’s the Name of lord Siva – famously called Siva Panchakshari (the 5 letters – Om nama Sivaya – in Sanskrit – given in the last line of the above present manthras). Hence, the hymns are very pious and should be treated with respect.
Anda brammanda koti.. Akhila paripaalana..
The one who rules / takes care of all the numerous universes around
Poorana jagat kaarana sathya deva deva Priya..
The one who is whole. The one who is responsible / reason for the world. The one who is liked by the truthful gods.
Vedha vedhartha saara.. yagna yagnomaya..

Nishchala dushta nigragha.. sapta loga samrakshana..
The unshakable / stable one. The one who destroys all the bad people. The one who protects the seven worlds.
Soma soorya agni lochana..Swetha rishaba vaaghana..
The one who has eyes as the Moon, the Sun and the fire - Siva's three eyes are referred here. The one who has his vahana(vehicle) as the white bull.
Soola pani bujanga booshana.. tripura naasha nardhana..
One who has the Trishoola – the iron rod with three sharp ends. The one who wears a snake. The one who destroyed the three demons who had three types of forts (the thripuras) and who danced on the debris after destroying them.
Yomakesa mahaasena janaka..pancha vakra parasu hastha namaha..
