Waves of the Bliss of Lord Shiva

By: Dr. Ramamurthy Natarajan

Narrated by: Virtual Voice

Shivanandalahari is a treasure given by Sri Adi Shankara, an incarnation of Lord Shiva. This is a stotram, we recite to worship Lord Shiva and achieve all the comforts. While many books have been published on Shivanandalahari, one may wonder, if there is a need for another book. All the 100 hymns in Shivanandalahari seemingly Stutis on Lord Shiva – describing Shiva at a glance. Usually, they are recited or sang as songs with music. Each of them is a spell if it is looked inside. There are many philosophies embedded within each. For each spell, there is a special tattva attached. Each verse is a mantra itself and they can be individually performed as japam for various purposes. This book is an attempt to bring all these out and explain the inner nuances to everyone in a simple way. It is hoped that this will be useful to readers. Everyone who reads this book will get a glimpse of the perfect grace of Lord Shiva.
