Hara Hara Mahadeva (Return of the Goddess)

MANTRA MEANING

In the beginning, Lord Shiva and his consort, the Goddess, were one in cosmic embrace. After separation from the Lord, the Goddess creates the universe and beings that can dwell in it. On earth, humans have the capacity to eventually understand and manifest their essentially divine nature. This mantra is chanted to invoke the feeling of the return to the Lord.
