Shri Ardhanarishwara Stotram

The Cosmic Union of Purusha and Prakriti brought forth the Universe. Here is
a  Poem extolling them, symbolised as Shiva and Parvathy !

The concept of Ardha Nareeswara symbolises the Inseparability of Purusha and Prakriti.

Both feminine and masculine properties exist in all humans.

In Mysticism, Intuition is female and Intellect is male
Intuition is female and Reason is male !

Champeya gowrardha sareerakayai,
Karpoora gourardha sareerakaya,
Dhamillakayai cha jatadaraya,
Nama Shivayai cha namashivaya.

Salutations to both Purusha and Prakriti
To Her  whose body is of golden hue
To Him whose body resembles burning camphor
To Her whose hair is lovely
And to Him whose matted locks shine !

Kasthurika kumkuma charchithayai,
Chitharaja puncha vicharchithayai,
Kruthasmarayai vikrutha smaraya,
Nama Shivayai cha namashivaya

Salutations to both Purusha and Prakriti
To Her, whose body  is smeared with saffron and musk
To Him, whose body is smeared with ashes
To Her , whose beauty radiates Love
And to Him who destroyed the God of Lust.

Jhanath kvanath kankana noopurayai,
Padabja Rajat phani noopuraya,
Hemangadhayai bhujagangadhaya,
Nama Shivayai cha namashivaya.

Salutations to both Purusha and Prakriti
To Her, whose anklets tinkle
To Him, whose ankle is snake
To Her, whose shines with them ( anklets )
And to Him, who has snakes as anklets !
