శ్రీ పరమేశ్వర స్తుతిః (దేవదారువనస్థ ముని కృతమ్)

The praise offered to Parameshvara by the sages of the Devadaru forest, from the Linga Purana. The rishis speak, and the hymn is a chain of salutations that refuses to settle on one aspect: to the sky-clad one, to the ender of all, to the trident-bearer; to the misshapen, to the terrible, to the terrible-faced; then, in a single breath, to the formless, to the beautifully formed, and to him whose form is the universe. It goes on to the one to whom all bow and who is himself bowed down, and to Shrikantha of the dark crest. Recited for the destruction of inner faults and for Shiva's grace.
