The Terrifying Tandava of Lord Shiva

I hail Lord Siva who is proficient in the terrifying tandava dance in pace with the ascending scale of the mridanga which makes the auspicious sound of dhimid dhimid, and the fire blazing on whose forehead has become extremely fearsome due to the exhaled breaths of snakes slithering speedily.

Sadashiva, the Cosmic Form of Lord Shiva

When will I worship Lord Sadashiva while viewing the common people and emperors, a lump of clay and valuable precious stones, a snake and a string of pearls, a stone-hearted and a lovingly tender person with equality in this strange world of varied ways.
