Jai Sriman Narayana !!
Jaya Jaya Sankara Hara Hara Sankara !!
Shiva Gitimala was composed by
Jagadguru Sri Chandrasekharendra Saraswathi ( 62nd Seer of Sri
Kanchi Kamakoti Peedam), it consists of 20 enthralling verses known as
Ashtapadi praising the pleasurable moments of Lord Ekamreshwarar and Goddess
Sri Kamakshi. This beautiful composition
portraits the desperation, devotion and dedication, of individual soul/Jeevathma,
attain union with the Supreme soul/Paramathma in order to achieve eternal bliss. Shiva Ashtapadi/Shiva Gitimala begins with
the veneration of Lord Ganesha. The
entire verses illustrate the miserable state of separation of Goddess Parvathi
from Lord Shiva. Goddess Sri Parvati
underwent severe penance on the river banks of Kampa in order to unite with the
Lord Shiva. The divine couple undergoes
unbearable pain of separation; Lord Shiva came down to Earth and resides under
a mango tree where Goddess Sri Parvati undertakes penance was observed by
faithful companion of Goddess and was duly informed. The state of remorsefulness, desertion, guilt
and the messages exchanged through the companion of Godess Sri Parvati etc..
are beautifully depicted in the Ashtapadi.
Ultimately Lord Shiva appears before Goddess Sri Parvati and apologizes
profusely, after an initial harshness between the couple and blissfully unites.
Om Nama Shivaya

|| Shiva Ashtapadi ||
In this verse Sri Chandrasekharendra
Yati beautifully describes Lord Shiva’s instruction to the faithful companion
of Goddess to inform his place of existence in a hermitage made of Madhavi
creepers under the foot of mango tree to Goddess Sri Parvati. He ordered her to pacify Goddess Sri Parvati
and bring her to his hermitage, eventually the above messages were informed to
Goddess Sri Parvati by her companion.
‘Goddess Sri Gouri, you are
miserable due to the pain of separation from Lord Shiva, the destroyer of
Manmatha also equally dejected watching the honey-bees drinking honey and
sporting with their companion. He feels
terrible at the touch of gentle breeze due to the pangs of separation from
you. He anxiously desires for your company while the
honey bees whizzing around him. He feels
miserable without you watching the blooming flowers of beautiful spring season. Lord Shiva chants hymn of Veda praising the
victory of Lord Manmatha in the midst of unfathomable chirping noises of
cuckoos. The pollen of flowers scattered
due to the gentle breeze takes refugee on the body of Lord Shiva supplements
his pain of separation. The cooling beam
of moonlight captures the coldness of his sporting mood; the bed of flowers
causes restlessness in him and intense pain of separation from you. Previously Lord Shiva was found immense
pleasure in sporting activities with you; in that way he made you feel excited,
currently he keeps murmuring your name due to the pain of separation from you
and impatiently looking forward the bliss of reunion.
The above promising verses of
Chandrasekhara Yathi, passionate devote of Lord Shiva narrates the grief of
Lord due to the separation from his consort Goddess Sri Parvati removes
impurities in devotees.
