Bhartṛhari K300

Tawney

            
            Siva controls earth, heav'n, and hell,
            
            Vishnu pervades each part,
            
            Their rank in being who can tell?
            
            But Siva has my heart.

Mādhavānanda

            
              महेश्वरे वा जगतामधीश्वरे
            
                जनार्दने वा जगदन्तरात्मनि ।
            
              न वस्तुभेदप्रतिपत्तिरस्ति मे
            
                तथापि भक्तिस्तरुणेन्दुशेखरे ।।८४।।
            
            84. I make no difference in substance between Śiva, the Lord of the universe and Viṣṇu, the inmost Self of the universe. But still my devotion is (attached) to the One in whose crest there is the crescent moon.
            
            [This śloka has been brought forward by the poet as a doubt may arise in the mind from the preceding śloka where the poet says that Śiva is the only Lord to take refuge in. Here the poet says that really there is no difference between Śiva and Viṣṇu, but he is by nature attached to Śiva. This is what is called Iṣtaniṣṭā, or the devotion to one’s own ideal.
            
            The word जनार्दन has been variously derived, the verb अर्द meaning both ‘destroying’ and ‘protecting’. If the former meaning be taken, then the word would mean ‘slayer of the Janas’ (demons living in the sea.]
            
            जगदन्तरात्मनि—This word has been variously interpreted: (1) ‘the inmost Self of the universe’, (2) ‘One who is the knower of all inner things in the universe’, (3) ‘One who is the Self of all in the universe’, or it may mean, (4) ‘in whose Self is the whole universe’.]
