Word breakdown
- नमः शिवाभ्यां वृषवाहनाभ्याम्
- Salutations to the two Shivas who ride the bull,
- विरिञ्चिविष्ण्विन्द्रसुपूजिताभ्याम्
- who are well worshipped by Brahma, Vishnu, and Indra,
- विभूतिपाटीरविलेपनाभ्याम्
- who are anointed with ash and fragrant paste,
- नमो नमः शङ्करपार्वतीभ्याम्
- again and again salutations to Shankara and Parvati.
Worshipped by the Trimurti and anointed with ash and perfume, they unite austerity and beauty in one worshipful form; the gods' homage points to the one Lord whom all deities ultimately acknowledge as their ground.
