Sh.KC,

 

Sri Rudram is derived from the Krishna Yajurveda, Taittariya Samhita

in the fourth chapter.Its companion text, Chamakam, whic is found in

the seventh chapter. The age of the text may be in the range of 3000

years. Like all Vedic texts it is pleasing to the ear moreover

confounding to the intellect. The melody and rhythm are unique and

comfortable for listening.

 

Rudra is always known to be quickly pleased and through the praise

contained in Sri Rudram the fierce Rudra would calm up and grant us

every conceivable blessing as requested in the Chamakam hymn. There

are several mantras found in Sri Rudram that are used to bring

great peace and enlightenment.The Shri Rudram Chamakam is divided

into Shri Rudram or Namakam, which describes aspects of Rudra

 

Rudram is divided into 11 sections called Anuvakas. In the first

Anuvaka, Rudra is asked to turn away his Ghora rupa (fierce

appearance) and pleased to keep his and his followers' weapons at

bay. Having been pacified so, Rudra is requested to destroy the

sins of those who chant the mantra.

 

Chamakam, the second part of the text, asks God for fulfillment of

wishes. The repeated phrase, ca me literally means, "and to me [be

this granted]", accompanied by lists of desirables.

 

The prayer interprets that Vishnu is another aspect of Shiva

accordingly holds Vishnu and Shiva are one and the same.

Interestingly, the Vishnu sahasranama, in a similar manner, states

Shiva is an aspect of Vishnu.

 

AUM Namah Shivay
