To That Shiva

To that Shiva whom I have yet not recognized,

As my very Self, the Self of all things. 

In whose existence we ever exist, 

Never separate nor inseparable.

To that Ocean of compassion who is Shiva,

On whose waves worlds come and go.

In whose depth all contradictions cease,

Leaving behind pure consciousness.

To the Wielder of the triad powers,

Of will, knowledge and action.

We offer our sense of limitations and incompleteness,

For in His Self there is only perfection.

OM!
