Vedic and Cultural Centre of Australia, Sydney
Shri Ekadasha Rudra Japam
Date: Sunday, 19th November, 2017 Time: 7:00 am – 1:30 pm
Venue: Shri Shiva Mandir – 201 Eagleview Road Minto, NSW 2566
Significance:
� The word ‘Rudram’ is derived from two words – ‘Rud’ and ‘Ra’. 'Rud' means dukham (sorrow)
or paapam (sin, demerit). 'Ra' means eliminator. So Rudram means dukham-
eliminator, paapam-eliminator. Lord Siva get the name Rudra because he removes sorrow
and sin and also the cause which is ignorance. Sri Rudram talks about the glory of Siva.
� Sri Rudram occurs in Krishna Yajur Veda. There are seven chapters in this Veda and Sri
Rudram occurs in the fourth or middle chapter. So if Krishna Yajur Veda is like a
garland, Sri Rudram is like a pendant in the middle. The important and well known Mantras
Panchakshari Mantra and Mrithunjaya Mantra are also found in Sri Rudram.
� With the blessings of His Holiness Sri Jayendra Saraswathi Swamigal of Kanchipuram and
kind permission from Shiv Mandir Management Committee, Vedic and Cultural Centre of
Australia will hold this function under the guidance of the temple priests.
The Rudra Japam will be followed by Yagna and Abhishekam at the temple premises.
