Note on Pronunciation:
The sounding of "svāhā" is to add power and shakti to the shiva energy; it is a
total surrender and offering into the fire all that which prevents one from
connecting with the true Self. The fire does not have to be literal, there is also
an inner fire. The literal fire helps though, to focus concentration and see
manifest the energy that 'eats up' that which you offer to it and transforms it.
Swaha is complete surrender of your ego to the higher Self , this is the purest
definition. Surrender of all you have been 'carrying' into the 'fire'. Total and
complete Surrender, and letting go which would mean you are FREE!

Freedom
The freedom that comes from realising I know nothing and what I think I know
or what knowledge I feel I may have piled up can be blown to smithereens in
the light of reality, truth and wisdom this freedom is death to my sense of 'me'
and in this death is a newness, a release, a rebirth it is painful, but liberating
like watching a caterpillar leave its chrysalis to become a butterfly
Translation:
"We worship the supreme light, the Absolute Shiva, who has three eyes, who
is fragrant and nourishes all beings. This light is the expression and
communication of our life, and it is our physical, mental and spiritual radiation
and prosperity. Kindly release us from all calamities, bondage and suffering,
just as the cucumber is released from its stalk, without any injury. May our
minds be absorbed into Shiva, amritam (nectar), the ocean of tranquility" —
