Phala Sruti (Benefits of Reciting Shivaashtakam):
Shivaashtakamidam Punyam Pathet Shuddhaat Manishi Sarvasiddhyakaram Nityam Shivalokam Avaapnuyaat.
Meaning:
1- I praise Lord Shiva, the lord of the universe, the lord of all beings, who is eternal bliss, who is the lord of past, present, and future, and who is the lord of all creatures.
2- I praise Lord Shiva, who wears a garland of skulls around his neck, who is adorned with a mesh of serpents, who is the death of death (Mahakala), who is the protector of Ganesha and other gods, and who is vast like the waves of the Ganges in his matted hair.
3- I praise Lord Shiva, who is ever blissful, who adorns himself with great garlands, who is covered with sacred ashes, who has no beginning or end, and who is the destroyer of the great demon Vritra.
4- I praise Lord Shiva, who is worshipped with the sound of drums and other instruments, who is adored by all gods and sages, who pervades the entire universe, and who blesses with divine seeds.
5- I praise Lord Shiva, who is worshipped by a thousand-petaled lotus, who is revered by sages and beings of all realms, who is unattainable by worldly beings, and who is the sole lord of the three worlds.
6- I praise Lord Shiva, who is the essence of supreme nectar, who is boundless, who is worshipped by gods, who dwells in great mountains, who is the lord of the entire universe, and who embodies pure consciousness.
7- I praise Lord Shiva, who is the protector of the helpless and the distressed, who wields the trident (Trishula), who is the essence of life, and who is directly experienced by great yogis and sages.
8- I praise Lord Shiva, who has a divine form, who is terrifying in appearance, who has three eyes, who wears a serpent around his neck, and who is the lord of mountains, the essence of speech, and the supreme being.
