3 God Shiva is very kind hearted, he can destroy any kind of sin bigger or smaller of his devotees, and he is always in Samadhi. I bow to God Shiva who is “ma” kara roopa.
4 God Shiva is Swami (head) of this world. He is the only one who looks after betterments of all the people. He is very silent. I bow to God Shiva who is “Shi”kar roopa.
5 Vrushabha is God Shiva’s vehicle. Vasuki (a big serpent) is his necklace. On the lefthand side very powerful Goddess Paravati is standing. I bow to God Shiva who is “Va”kara roopa.
6 God Shiva is every where. There is no place any where, where God Shiva is not found. He is guru of all Gods. I bow to God Shiva who is “ya”kara roopa.
7 If any body recites this God Shiva stotra of six letters in front of God Shiva (temple or like) goes to the Shiva Loka after his death and rest with God Shiva happily.
