Shiva Puja & Chant


Aghore Bhyo Tagore Bhyo
Ghora Ghora Tare Bhyaha
Sarve Bhyaha Sarva Sharve Bhyo
Namaste Astu Rudra Roope Bhyaha

Manifesting supreme peace
as well as terrifying, wrathful activity,
He is beyond both extremes
To that Rudra, who is everything
and within everything,
I bow

Tat purukhaaya videmahe
Mahaadevaaya dhiimahi
Tanno Rudraha prachodayaataha

Meditate on that Supreme Being, Brahman
The great God (Mahadev) Shiva
May He liberate me

Dhyana mulam guru murti
Puja mulam gurur padam
Mantra mulam gurur vaakyam
Moksha mulam guru kripaa

The true object of meditation
is the Guru’s form
True worship is of the Guru’s feet
The essence of all mantra
is the words of the Guru
Liberation is the Guru’s grace

Om Namaha Shivaaya Gurave
Satchidaananda Murtaye
Nishprapanchaaya Shaantaya
Niraalambaya Tejase

I bow to the Auspicious one
Shiva, the Guru
Whose form is reality,
pure awareness and bliss
Peace beyond all illusion
Self-existent and radiant

Om Namaha Shivaaya
Namah Shivaaya Namah Shivaaya
