Notes
1. The philosophy explains to us that the Formless Supreme called
parashiva - incomprehensible, out of Its Grace took the form of
sadhashiva (shivalingam) in front of brahma and viShNu. Further It
took many forms in Its act of Grace to the pashus many forms that
are easy to worship and show the love with. These much adored forms
are called mAheshvara mUrthams. The purANas tell these as 25 concise
and 64 expanded. (The details of these could be found at
25 Murthams ).
2. Sambandhar hails the glory of the Forms of Lord shiva in this hymn.
