Oh Sankara, you adorn Moon the lord of all stars. Narayana worships you. You are the essence of primordial sound 'Omkara Nada'. You are beauty personified. Your incarnation Guha shines with "Taropadesa" preaching.

Your body has the effulgence of crores of Suns. You humbled Manmadha. You are the cause and effect of creation. Your ornaments are many. You are the master of all four kinds of "Vedic" rituals. You dwell in our hearts always. You are wish-fulfilling celestial "Mandara" tree for seekers. You are Guru transcending Supreme state of conciousness. Goddess Abhayambika is your consort.
