are full of dynamism and need to be worshipped. This shows that Sri Parameswara's weapons like arrow etc. This has been mentioned in the Mahabharata. The weapon then reached his hands in a calm and peaceful form. Sri Krishna then chanted Sri Rudram in order to pacify it and make it come to his hands. When they both went to the lake, they noticed that the weapon looked very terrible, surrounded by poisonous flames. Parameswara asked them to bring a certain weapon from the adjacent divine lake. In order to learn it, Sri Krishna and Arjuna went to Kailasa. Once Arjuna forgot the method of using Paasupatastra. Hence praying and paying obeisance to them is but appropriate. Hence anger, arrow, bow and arms are prayed to in that order. Then his two arms will go on to hold them. When Parameswara gets angry, his arrow will come in front he will then look at his bow. As anger is the basic cause of all types of grief, anger is propitiated at the beginning itself. As he is prayed here for ridding his anger and being calm, it is but proper that he is addressed as 'Rudra'. and bring them over to the right path, is only a good quality and not a fault.įollowing the etymology रुदं+ द्रावयतीति = रुद्रः, as Sri Parameswara drives away grief, or sin which causes grief, he is called 'Rudra'. How can there be anger in Sri Parameswara, the blemishless one with all good attributes? The answer is that his anger in order to punish those, who transgress his commands contained in Srutis, Smritis etc. In order to pacify the terrible form of his, obeisance is paid to his anger, weapons etc. There are many terrible and calm forms of Sri Rudra. In the last two Anuvakams, prayers are offered to Sri Rudra and Rudraganas. From the second to the ninth Anuvakams, Sri Rudra is eulogised in many ways and obeisance paid to him. In the first Anuvakam, the angry Sri Rudra is pacified. There are a total of 11 Anuvakams (sections) in Sri Rudram.
