Word breakdown
- ईशनादिपदं शिवैकफलदं रत्नासनं ते शुभं
- The seat beginning with Ishana, yielding the sole fruit of Shiva, your auspicious jewelled throne,
- पाद्यं कुङ्कुमचन्दनादिभरितैरर्घ्यं सरत्नाक्षतैः
- foot-water, arghya rich with saffron and sandal, with jewelled rice,
- शुद्धैराचमनीयकं तव जलैर्भक्त्या मया कल्पितं
- pure sipping-water with your waters, prepared by me with devotion,
- कारुण्यामृतवारिधे तदखिलं सन्तुष्टये कल्पताम्
- O ocean of the nectar of compassion, may all that be fit for your satisfaction.
Offerings prepared with devotion are accepted by the ocean of compassion, not by ritual skill alone. The fruit of Shiva is granted when worship is offered to the Mother as the source of every mantra and grace.
