Talk and meditation on Shivananda Lahiri Verse 01

kalā bhyā ṁ cūḍālaṅkṛta-śaśi-kalā bhyāṁ nija-tapaḥ -
phalābhyāṁbhakteṣu prakaṭita-phalābhyāṁ
bhavatu me ।
śivābhyām astoka-tribhuvana-śivā bhyāṁ hṛdi punar-
bhavābhyām ānanda-sphurad-anubhavābhyāṁ natiriyam ॥

Simple Meaning
“My salutations are always to that divine couple —
Śiva and Śivā —
• who are adorned with the crescent moon,
• who are themselves the fruit of their own
austerities,
• who openly bestow the fruits of devotion upon
their devotees,
• who are the very source of auspiciousness for the
three worlds,
• who are born again and again in the devotee’s
heart,
• and whose experience shines forth as pure bliss.”

Talk and meditation on Shivananda Lahiri Verse 43

mā gaccha tvam itas-tato giriśa bho! mayyeva vāsaṃ kuru
svāminn ādikirāta māmaka-manaḥ-kāntāra-sīmāntare ।
vartante bahuśo mṛgā mada-juṣo mātsarya-mohādayaḥ
tān hatvā mṛgayā-vinoda-rucita-lābhaṃ ca samprāpsyasi ॥

Simple Meaning
“O Lord Girīśa (Śiva)! Do not wander here and there — dwell within me alone. O Primordial Hunter (Ādi-Kirāta), in the dense forest of my heart dwell many wild beasts — pride, envy, delusion, and the like. If You, as the hunter, slay them, You will
obtain the true joy and reward of the hunt."
