Guru Paduka Stotram
Anantha samsara samudhra thara naukayithabhyam guru bhakthithabhyam, Vairagya samrajyadha poojanabhyam, namo nama sri guru padukhabyam.1
The crossing of the endless ocean of samsara is possible by the boat that is sincere devotion to the Guru. Showing me the way to the valuable dominion of renunciation, O dear Guru, I bow to thy holy sandals.
Kavithva varasini sagarabhyam, dourbhagya davambudha malikabhyam, Dhoorikrutha namra vipathithabhyam, namo nama sri guru padukhabyam. 2
Like a full moon for the ocean of the Knowledge, Like down pour of water to put out the fire of misfortunes, Removing the various distresses of those who surrender to them, O dear Guru, I bow to thy holy sandals.
Natha yayo sripatitam samiyu kadachidapyasu daridra varya, Mookascha vachaspathitham hi thabhyam, namo nama sri guru padukhabyam. 3
Those who prostrate to the blessed padukas of their Guru, becomes possessors of great wealth, and overcome the curse of their poverty very quickly. Such is the inexplicable power of these padukas that the dumb ones become eloquent speakers, O dear Guru, I bow to thy holy sandals.
Naleeka neekasa pada hrithabhyam, nana vimohadhi nivarikabyam, Nama janabheeshtathathi pradhabhyam namo nama sri guru padukhabyam. 4
Attracting us to the lotus like feet of our Guru, removing all kinds of desires borne out of ignorance, Fulfilling all the desires of the disciple who bows humbly, O dear Guru, I bow to thy holy sandals.
Nrupali mouleebraja rathna kanthi sariddha raja jjashakanyakabhyam, Nrupadvadhabhyam nathaloka pankhthe hey, namo nama sri guru padukhabyam. 5
Shining like a precious stone adorning the crown of a king, they stand out like a beautiful damsel in a river invested with crocodiles. They raise the devotees to the state of sovereign emperors, O dear Guru, I bow to thy holy sandals.
Papandhakara arka paramparabhyam, thapathryaheendra khageswarabhyam, Jadyadhi samsoshana vadaveebhyam namo nama sri guru padukhabyam. 6
Shining radiantly like the Sun, effacing the endless darkness of the disciples sins, Like an eagle for the snake like tree-fold pains of samsara, Like a conflagration of fire whose heat dries away the ocean of ignorance, To such supreme padukas of my Guru, I humbly surrender
Shamadhi shatka pradha vaibhavabhyam, Samadhi dhana vratha deeksithabhyam, Ramadhavadeegra sthirha bhakthidabhyam, namo nama sri guru padukhabyam. 7
They endow us with the glorious six qualities like Shama, Full of charity to bless the initiated ones with the ability to go into Samadhi, Blessing the devotees with permanent devotion for the feet of Lord Vishnu (Ramadhava), to such divine padukas, I offer my prayers.
Swarchaparana makhileshtathabhyam, swaha sahayaksha durndarabhyam, Swanthachad bhava pradha poojanabhyam, namo nama sri guru padukhabyam. 8
Fulfilling all the wishes of the disciples, Who are ever available and dedicated for Sewa, Awakening the sincere aspirants to the divine state of self-realization, To such divine padukas I bow again and again.
Kaamadhi sarpa vraja garudabhyam, viveka vairagya nidhi pradhabhyam, Bhodha pradhabhyam drutha mokshathabhyam, namo nama sri guru padukhabyam. 9
They are like an eagle for all the serpents of desires, Blessing us with the valuable treasure of discrimination and renunciation, Granting us the knowledge to get instant liberation from the shackles of the life, To such divine padukas I bow again and again.

Bilvashtakam
Tridalam Trigunakaaram Trinethram Cha Triyayusham,
Trijanma Papa Samharam Eka Bilwam Shivarpanam 1
I offer one leaf of Bilwa to Lord Shiva,
Which has three leaves,
Which causes three qualities,
Which are like the three eyes of Shiva,
Which is like the triad of weapons,
And which destroys sins of three births.
Trishakhai Bilwapathraischa Hyachidrai Komalai Shubai,
Shiva Poojam Karishyami, Eka Bilwam Shivarpanam 2
I offer one leaf of Bilwa to Lord Shiva,
Which has three shoots,
Which do not have holes,
Which are good and pretty,
And worship Lord Shiva.
Aganda Bilwa Pathrena Poojithe Nandikeshware,
Shudhyanthi Sarva Papebhyo, Eka Bilwam Shivarpanam 3
I offer one leaf of Bilwa to Lord Shiva,
For if an uncut leaf is offered,
To his steed the god Nandi,
We get cleaned of all our sins.
Salagrama Shilamekaam Vipranam Jatha Cha Arpayeth,
Soma Yagna Maha Punyam, Eka Bilwam Shivarpanam 4
I offer one leaf of Bilwa to Lord Shiva,
For it is equal to, offering a saligrama to a Brahmin,
Or the great blessing got out of performing Soma Yaga,
Dandi Koti Sahasrani Vajapeya Sathani Cha,
Koti Kanya Maha Danam, Eka Bilwam Shivarpanam 5
I offer one leaf of Bilwa to Lord Shiva,
For it is equal to gifting thousand elephants,
Or the performing of hundred fire sacrifices,
Or giving away billions of girls.
Lakshmyasthanutha Uthpannam Mahadevasya Cha Priyam,
Bilwa Vruksham Prayachami, Eka Bilwam Shivarpanam 6
I offer one leaf of Bilwa to Lord Shiva,
For it is equal to giving a tree of Bilwa,
Which was born from the breast of Lakshmi,
And which is very dear to the Lord Shiva.
Darshanam Bilwa Vrukshasya, Sparsanam Papa Nasanam,
Aghora Papa Samharam, Eka Bilwam Shivarpanam 7
I offer one leaf of Bilwa to Lord Shiva,
As seeing and touching of a tree of Bilwa,
Washes away ones sins and also very great sins.
Kasi Kshethra Nivasam Cha Kala Bhairava Darshanam,
Prayaga Madhavam Drushtwa, Eka Bilwam Shivarpanam 8
I offer one leaf of Bilwa to Lord Shiva,
After living in the city of Kasi,
Seeing the Kala Bhairawa,
And also visiting the temple
Of Madhawa in Allahabad.
Moolatho Brahma Roopaya, Madhyatho Vishnu Roopine
Agratha Shiva Roopaya, Eka Bilwam Shivarpanam 9
I offer one leaf of Bilwa to Lord Shiva,
As Brahma resides at its bottom,
Lord Vishnu lives in its middle,
And Lord Shiva lives in its tip.
Bilwashtakam Idham Punyaam, Padeth Shiva Sannidhou,
Sarva Papa Nirmuktha Shiva Loka Maapnuyath 10
Reading this holy octet of Bilwa,
In the presence of Lord Shiva,
Would save one from all sins,
And in the end take him to the world of Shiva.
