ଉତ୍ପତ୍ତି ଓ କଥା
Devotional composition of Sri Sadashiva Brahmendra · Sri Sadashiva Brahmendra Saraswati · 18th century CE
Sri Sadashiva Brahmendra was a celebrated Avadhuta and Advaita master who lived as a wandering, often silent, God-intoxicated sage near Nerur in Tamil Nadu. His Sanskrit compositions, sung to this day in the Carnatic tradition, pour out the bliss of Self-realisation. In 'Bho Shambho' he calls upon Shiva at once as the tender, Ganga-bearing saviour who carries the devotee across the sea of birth and death, and as the attributeless Supreme Self shining within the cave of the heart — the goal of his own Advaitic realisation.
✦ ଶାସ୍ତ୍ରରେ କୁହାଯାଇଥିବା ପରି
Many stories surround Sadashiva Brahmendra's miraculous life as a silent avadhuta — it is said his hands, severed by a soldier when he wandered naked in samadhi, were restored when the king begged his forgiveness. Devotees believe that singing his Shiva songs like 'Bho Shambho' carries something of that saint's liberated bliss, calming the mind and turning it toward the Self.

Bho Shambho Shiva Shambho Swayambho ପାଠ ବିଧି
Sing or chant the refrain 'Bho Shambho Shiva Shambho Svayambho' between each verse, letting it become a steady, joyful repetition. Reflect on the two moods of the hymn: first the loving cry to the compassionate Lord who saves us, then the contemplation of Shiva as the formless, blissful Self within the heart. It may be sung melodically as a kirtan or recited softly as a meditation. There is no fixed count — repeat with devotion as long as the heart wishes.
