Lingashtakam, verse 1 (traditional Shaiva hymn) · Unknown (attributed to the ancient Shaiva tradition) · Ancient
This is the opening stanza of the Lingashtakam, the most widely sung hymn to the Shiva Linga, ending with its refrain 'Tat Pranamami Sadashiva Lingam'. According to the Shiva Purana, when Brahma and Vishnu disputed who was supreme, an infinite pillar of light (Jyotirlinga) appeared between them; neither could find its beginning or end, and Shiva revealed himself from it. The verse 'Brahma Murari Surarchita Lingam' captures this truth — that the Linga is revered even by Brahma and Vishnu — and opens the eight-verse adoration of Sadashiva.
✦ ಶಾಸ್ತ್ರಗಳಲ್ಲಿ ಹೇಳಿದಂತೆ
The Shiva Purana relates that even unlettered devotees who simply bowed before the self-manifested Jyotirlingas, uttering Shiva's name, had lifetimes of karma dissolved. This first verse of the Lingashtakam enshrines that promise — that bowing to the Linga worshipped by Brahma and Vishnu destroys the sorrows born of birth itself.
