Variation

Glory to Lord Shiva, the Lord of the Lords who is fond of the Tandava (Cosmic dance), who is the master of the stage that is the Universe and the one who is the consort of Mother Uma (Parvathi). May divine rhythms emanate from the Damaru while the Lord of dance dances the Tandava. Lord Sathya Sai is verily Lord Nataraja, the Lord of Chidambaram. He is the most beautiful Lord adorned with Vibhuti (Holy Ash) who bestows auspiciousness.
