| Sivananda Lahari - Of Sri Sankaracarya |
| A man caught in a current seeks the shore; a tired traveller, the shade of trees; one caught in rain his comfortable home; a man in quest of hospitality, a householder; a poverty-stricken person a charitable and wealthy man; a man in dense darkness, a lamp; and one exposed to cold, a well-fired hearth. In the same way, O my mind, seek the lotus feet of Siva - the feet that destroy all fears. |

| Siva Sahasranama Stotram |
The Mighty. Om balaviraya namah
The destruction of the triple fort took place by the mighty power of Siva. |
