Meaning:

The song begins by painting the picture of shivalinga with sharp petalled and round petalled Jasmines on him, on the top of his head. A black smooth rock with white embellishments on top, not unlike the snow capped Mount Kailash in a back drop of clear dark sky sprinkled with pin-Jasmine-like stars and lit by round-Jasmine-like moon.

What is so wondrous about Pin Jasmine? Does it symbolize the sharp flow of water from the aBiSEka vessel hanging on the linga? Or is it a picture of sharp spout of Ganga shooting out from his space-Black mane? Perhaps it is the pointed ends of the crescent moon on his crown. So what then is the bulbous Jasmine? Perhaps today is full moon. all of this creates a picture of mAdEva the Yogi, eyes closed deep in meditation as our singer looks on…

Our singer has brought many lotuses for the pooja. She also brings Shiva’s favourites, the ekka flower, the bilva leaves and tulasi leaves.

Another interpretion would be, beautiful apsaras are in front of me (ahead of me) to beautify your idol with Bilva and tulasi for pooja. While they put them on you some nodoubt fall on the crecent moon resting on your crown (head).

Using the word chandakki = for beautification we can split the verse into two sides, the imagery of colourful Lotuses which are for beautification, and bilva and tulsi which are green, simple and shiva’s favorites. Symbolizing his preference for detachment, a theme that runs strong through the song.

I wash to a shine, the vessel, I make fresh Ghee. I bring oranges, to your festival (market) where the sages come.

We have been calling the singer a girl with no real reason. This verse gives us some indication. While I am sure men have washed dishes for ever, there is something in the way ‘the cleaning of the dish and preparing ghee” is said that makes it sound feminine, at least for that time and era.

Here the most striking metaphors are vessel for the body and Ghee for the mind. The vessel is cleaned with the harsh ash, charcoal and tamarind before it can shine. The body must endure hardship to be worthy to house a mind that is ripe for next levels. Ghee comes to be, after much churn. Milk to curds, curds to butter, butter to ghee. Ghee needs a lot of processing also called samskaara (literal meaning = processing). All this churn is in preparation to what comes in the next verse, ascending the metaphorical mountain. This Ghee in this vessel sublimates and dissappears in a lamp looked over by mAdEva.

The other, more worldly interpretation, which also connects this verse to the final verse is as follows. If we interpret the vessel, ghee and orange as prepreation to participate in the festival market (where sages come), then too, she seeks Shiva’s grace to make a good sale, so that her family is content with life. The material well being of the singer’s family and kin also depends on mAdEva the Shiva incarnate.

Those climbing the mountain, have no use for ‘a home’ or for ‘desires’. With complete surrender to mAdEva, today, they will forget their bonds to their (past) home.

Those desirous of climbing the metaphorical mountain of enlightenment have no use for a home and all that comes with it, the samsaara. They have no use for desire itself, which needs purging. With the grace of mAdEva today as they start climbing their bond to their home will melt away.
