(Śiva Purāṇa: 1.20.52)“Meditate always upon Maheśa (Śiva),
Resembling a silver mountain,
Beautifully crowned by the moon,
Body shining like a jewel,
An axe, a deer, [and the mudras of] blessing and fearlessness in his hands,
Satisfied,
Seated in lotus [posture],
Praised by immortals on all sides,
Wearing a garment made of tiger-skin,
The foremost being in the universe,
The cause of the universe,
The dispeller of all fear,
Of five faces and three eyes.” - Read on →: śrī-rāma govinda mukunda śaure

O Śrī Kṛṣṇa, O Nārāyaṇa, O Vāsudeva!’
Unto you who are the king of the bees
Maddened by drinking
The nectar of such names [of Hari],
You who are a destroyer of all suffering,
You who are always inquired from by Śrī Nārada and others
About that which is most confidential,
You who are a quick bestower of boons,
You who are a bestower of the joy of bhakti to Hari,
[Unto you,] Śiva,
You who are the guru of all—
Obeisance and obeisance.
Let obeisance
Be ever unto you,
You who are the auspiciousness of a festival
For the eyes of Śrī Gaurī,
You who are the lord of her life-breath,
You who are a bestower of rasa,
You who are adept in singing
Of the līlās of Govinda with intense longing. - Read on →: śāstrīyārtha-niścayaḥ siddhāntaḥ
