I humbly pay respect to Lord Shiva, who is embodiment of all good qualities and is eternally at peace. Whose body is the Universe. All the literature is his speech and who adorns himself with the moon and stars.

Q

slokam meaning

A

Hence, the above shloka means … We bow to that Lord Shiva, whose body is the whole Universe, whose speech is the entire world’s languages and whose ornaments are the moon stars etc.

Here Shiva is depicted as the Omnipotent Lord of dance whose body or movements cover everything that is the space around us and beyond that. His speech embodies all languages known to mankind and even all sounds that man has and could ever hear. His ornaments are none other than the moon and stars, celestial objects of space which we can only see and not even reach. Such is his magnified presence that we bow to him in reverence.
