But while the recording is playing, the word is spelled "mukhiau." It does not matter much at all if you know the mantra, and listening to it you hear how it is pronounced, but I thought it should be pointed out. "Mukshiya" is how I've always seen it, even in the app when you look at the mantra when it isn't playing it is spelled that way. Lord Shiva, you have given sweetness and beauty in my life. It is called the Rudra mantra, referring to the furious aspect of Shiva the Tryambakam mantra, alluding to Shivas three eyes and its is.
It is a mantra that has many names and forms. It is called the Maha Mrityunjaya mantra, the Great Death-Conquering mantra.
I am worshiping you by full of heart and mind. The great mantra dedicated to Shiva as Mrityunjaya is found in the Rig Veda. May he lead us to immortality, just as the cucumber is released from its bondage (the vine to which it is. May he liberate us from (the eternal cycle of birth and) death. We worship the three-eyed one (Lord Shiva) who is fragrant (in a state of supreme bliss), and who sustains all living beings. I am worshiping three-eyed Lord Shiva who is my nurture. Maha Mrityunjaya mantra translated in English. I've only recently downloaded this, and have begun using it first thing when I wake up each day.Īlso, while I'm not at all an expert (barely a novice) in Sanskrit, or its transliteration, I believe that in the English lyrics, one word is spelled wrong. Maha mrityunjaya mantra in English Om tryambakam yajamahe sugandhim pushtivardhanam, Urvarukamiva bandhananmrityoemukshiya mamritat. Being able to set the number of repetitions of the mantra from 11 to 108 is nice, the graphics are very well done, and importantly the recording of the mantra is quite clear and easy to join in (some apps have the mantra a bit too elaborate with the singing, it no longer feels like chanting, or even kirtan, as some syllables are stretched out with a sweeping range of notes that a non singer can't follow).
That aside, this is the best app with the Maha Mrityunjaya Mantra that I have found, out of the ones I've tried. I'd gladly pay 99¢ or so to get rid of the banner ads, but unfortunately there is currently no choice. If one is reading the words to the mantra, the banner is right below, so that can cause some distraction. There are small ads in a banner at the bottom of the screen, which can be ignored fairly well, especially if one is looking at the beautiful pictures of Siva.
