Rudra, Mahakal, Bhole Shankar, Shiva.. The harmony of conflicting feelings is seen in Shiva. On one side of Shiva’s head is the moon, and on the other hand, Mahavishadhar snake is also a garland around his neck. He is Kamjit even though he is Ardhanarishwar. Despite being a householder, the residents of the crematorium are vitaragi. Despite being gentle, Ashutosh is fierce Rudra.

O Lord of Nandi, Lord of Pramatha, Lord of Maheshwara, covered with the sandalwood of the waters of Mandakini.

मन्दाकिनीसलिलचन्दनचर्चिताय नन्दीश्वरप्रमथनाथमहेश्वराय।

I offer my respectful obeisances unto that mākāra, who is worshiped with many flowers like mandara flowers.

मन्दारपुष्पबहुपुष्पसुपूजिताय तस्मै मकाराय नम: शिवाय ॥

who is Shiva united with the holy water of the sky-going Mandakini and adorned with sandalwood, and endowed with Gana specials and six properties like Nandishwar and Pramathanath, who is worshiped by many sacred flowers like Mandara–Parijat; I salute that Makara form of Shiva.
