Śrī Rudra Sūktam is one of the most famous hymns of the Vedas. God as Rudra is omniscient, omnipotent, omnipresent and the Lord of all. Rudra appears as all, dwells in all, pervades all, is the essence of all and is all. Śrī Rudra Sūktam imparts this vision of the Sages so that we too can see Him and worship Him through prostrations to all – those conducive and unconducive, those exalted and the despicable, those near and far, and those insignificant extra-ordinary. The Sages are generous in asking and Rudra is generous in giving. Śrī Rudra Sūktam has a long wish list presented to Rudra as our daily prayer and worship Swami Tejomayananda’s succinct commentary makes us relish the sweetness of each mantra as we chant and study Śrī Rudra Sūktam, and as promised, fulfils our desire for a good morning and a good day (sūṣā ca me sudinaṁ ca me)! A must read for all who wish to divinize every experience of life and who want everything great in life.

Sri Rudram has been described by some of the Vedic scholars as “Yajusham Saaram,” or the essence of the entire Yajur Vedam. It has 169 Manthrams, organized in eleven Anuvakaas or chapters. Sri Rudram is also known RudrOpanishad and Sata Rudreeyam. The latter name is associated with the fact that the Upasana Moorthy of Sri Rudram is praised in all the 101 branches (Sakas) of Yajur Vedam as inferred from the comment of Sri Bhatta Bhaskara, a celebrated commentator (Bhashyakarar) of Sri Rudram. Besides Sri Bhatta Bhaskara, Sri Sayana, Sri Abhinava Sankara and, most recently, Brahma Sri Mutthu Krishna Sastrigal have written commentaries on Sri Rudram. Brahma Sri Sastrigal's commentary is in Tamil and was published approximately Fifty-five years ago as a Hitha Bhashini release from Tanjavoor. Sri Sayana's commentary, on the other hand, dates back to the era of the Vijaya Nagara empire. The Abhinava Sankara's Bhasyam includes the listing of appropriate Rishis (Sages), Chandas (Meters) and Devathaas (Godheads) for each of the 169 Manthras as required for the individual Veda Mantrams . The present commentary in English is based on the above original sources in general and on Brahma Sri Mutthu KrishNa Sastrigal's commentaries in particular. The purpose of adding yet another commentary on Sri Rudram is to address the needs of overseas Residents of Indian origin, who worship Lord Siva at the many Hindu Temples and in their own homes across the landscape of the many continents. It is sincerely hoped that this publication would serve the goals of gaining a fuller appreciation by them of the majesty and beauty of Sri Rudram as a Veda BhAgam .

Then what to speak of the glory of his padukas that serve him always, and which represent all that he stands for - Truth, God, knowledge, divinity and virtues.

Swami Tejomayananda, with words soaked in devotion of his own Guru and the entire lineage of Gurus, expounds on these glories in a though-provoking and heart touching way. Reading, reflecting and revelling in this hymn will surely bring all that is promised.

One of the three great gods of Hinduism, Siva is a living god. The most sacred and most ancient book of India, The Rg Veda, evokes his presence in its hymns; Vedic myths, rituals, and even astronomy testify to his existence from the dawn of time. In a lively meditation on Siva--based on original Sanskrit texts, many translated here for the first time--Stella Kramrisch ponders the metaphysics, ontology, and myths of Siva from the Vedas and the Puranas. Who is Siva? Who is this god whose being comprises and transcends everything? From the dawn of creation, the Wild God, the Great Yogi, the sum of all opposites, has been guardian of the absolute. By retelling and interweaving the many myths that keep Siva alive in India today, Kramrisch reveals the paradoxes in Siva's nature and thus in the nature of consciousness itself.

Shrimad Bhagavat is renowned as one of the greatest compositions in Sanskrit Literature. The 18th Purana composed by Maharishi Veda-Vyasa, it stands unparalleled in its distinct and resplendent exaltation of devotion to God, revealing throughout the quintessence of Vedantic teachings. Masterfully profound and delightfully enchanting, Shrimad Bhagavat abounds in work-paintings of the supreme Lord's wondrous and endearing avatars, divine sports and devotees - paintings that kindle, intensity and establish devotion in one's heart. This spring of devotion leads one to satsang, to the Guru and to teachings that unveil one's essential nature of Brahman.

Sri Rudram is considered as the heart of Krishna Yajur Veda, because Sri Rudram occupies the central part of Krishna Yajur Veda. Out of entire Sri Rudram, Namahshivaya, the Panchakshara mantra occupies the central point. Sri Rudram is also known as Rudra Upanishad. It is called so because, recitation of Sri Rudram removes our vasana-s (the impression of anything remaining unconsciously in the mind, the present consciousness of past perceptions), by imparting higher spiritual knowledge like Upanishad-s. It is also said that gods are satiated if Sri Rudram is chanted and hence it is also called Shatarudriya, which means one hundred ways of glorifying Rudra. If a tree is watered regularly, it grows with huge foliage. Similarly, if Sri Rudram is chanted, all gods are pleased. Further, recitation of Sri Rudram is considered as a remedy for all types of sins. References are available in certain Upanishads about Sri Rudram. Sri Rudram is an exclusive gift of Krishna Yajur Veda and only selected verses are found in Rig Veda. It is also known as "namakam" as it contains number of namaha. There are 11 stanzas (anuvaka - division or subdivision of Vedas) in Sri Rudram. These anuvaka-s are arranged in an order. In the first anuvaka is a prayer to an angry Rudra. Rudra is upset with those who did not obey His orders and in order to calm Him, prayers are offered to Him. Rudra becomes angry when adharma prevails over dharma.Camakam makes tears roll down the eyes due to its wonderful formation producing rhythmic waves. Camakam follows Sri Rudram recitation. There are repetition of ca after each word and hence it is called Camakam. It is also called vasordhara, which involves continuous flow of ghee (clarified butter) into the yajna fire, by reciting Camakam non-stop. Camakam is a prayer seeking riches and mental strength. There are 11 anuvaka-s and each word is followed by ca me, where ca means and/also; and me means me (I). It is important to note that all the prayers are only for the benefit of the individual concerned. From the ritualistic point of view, unless sankalapa is taken, benefits of these mantras will not accrue to others. However, benefits of listening to Chamakam will always be there for others. This book contains interpretation of both Sri Rudram and Camakam.
