శ్రీ శివ స్తవరాజః (బాణేశ్వర కవచ సహిత)

A king of hymns to Shiva with the Baneshvara armour attached, from the Brahma Khanda of the Brahmavaivarta Purana, and it enters mid-conversation at verse forty-three where the chapter puts it: great lord, greatly fortunate, the armour that has been revealed, the one named the purifier of the round of becoming — tell it of your kindness, lord. His answer is the standard warning that precedes such a text and is part of it: listen, child, I shall tell the supremely wonderful armour; I shall give it to you, but it is to be concealed and is very hard to come by. What follows sets the syllables and names over the body in the manner of the form, and the whole runs to thirty-eight verses.
