LORD RAJARAJESWARA OF TALIPARAMBA

UNIQUENESS

Just think of the Lord of Mount Kailas, uttering either by the plain disyllabic word like ISA, or by the pompus decasyllabic, like Anda Pinda Brahmandadheeswara, there appears on the mental screen Lord Siva in his simplest, serene form of a nomadic ascetic, semi-naked body, smeared all over the chest with white ashes, head with matted-hair knotted on hands with Kapala and trident, justifying as it were, the role of eternal sentinel of burial ground, littered with burnt out faggots and broken pots etc. Ironically his whole frame exudes such beatitude that he can fittingly be called Sadananda. Wherefrom does this sublime simplicity arise? He is Niradambara, and Smasanavasi although holding the most highest independent office like his two other counterparts Brahma and Vishnu.
