Mahamrityunjaya (Rigveda 7.59.12)#
ॐ त्र्यम्बकं यजामहे सुगन्धिं पुष्टिवर्धनम् ।
उर्वारुकमिव बन्धनान्मृत्योर्मुक्षीय माऽमृतात् ॥oṃ tryambakaṃ yajāmahe sugandhiṃ puṣṭivardhanam |
urvārukamiva bandhanānmṛtyormukṣīya mā'mṛtāt ||हम त्रिनेत्र शिव की आराधना करते हैं, जो सुगन्धित हैं और सबका पोषण करते हैं। जैसे पका खरबूजा बेल से छूट जाता है, वैसे ही वे हमें मृत्यु से मुक्त करें, अमृत से नहीं।
We worship the three-eyed one, fragrant, who nourishes all. As a ripe cucumber is freed from its stem, may he free us from death — not from immortality.
