Chanting Om Namah Shivaya mantra gives you eternal joy. Shiva becomes your protector, Every kind of panic, stress, depression, insanity starts fading slowly, when you begin Om Namah Shivaya chanting. Himself becomes the protector of the chanter.
Namah Shivaya means "Adoration to Lord Shiva"; this is preceded by the devotional syllable "Om".
In Siddha Shaivism and Shaiva Siddhanta Shaivism traditions, Namah Shivaya is considered as Pancha Bodha Tatva of Lord Shiva and his universal oneness of five elements:
- Na sound represents earth
- Ma sound represents water[
- Śi sound represents fire[
- Vā sound represents Pranic air
- Ya sound represents sky or ether
Its total meaning is that "universal consciousness is one".
In Shaiva Siddhanta, the five letters also represent:
- Na is the Lord’s concealing grace[
- Ma is the world[9]
- Śi stands for Shiva
- Vā is His revealing grace
- Ya is the Ātman or soul
The Tirumantiram (a scripture in Shaiva Siddhanta) announces that "His feet are the letter Na. His navel is the letter Ma. His shoulders are the letter Śi. His mouth, the letter Vā. His radiant cranial center aloft is Ya. Thus is the five-lettered form of Shiva.": Tirumantiram
