Shiv Panchakshar Stotra is a very popular and powerful stotra written by Sri Adi Shankaracharya in praise of Lord Shiva. In Sanskrit, “Panchakshar” literally means “Five Letters”. The Five letters are Na, Ma, Si, Va, Ya. Lord Shiva is worshipped with the mantra “Om Namah Shivaya”. Of this, “Namah Shivaya” is called the Panchakshar Stotra. It is said that the human body is made of 5 elements or the Pancha bhootas (earth, Water, Fire, Air, Space), and each letter of the Panchakshar Stotra or Mantra denotes one element. Shiva Panchakshar Stotra is also very popular with its first charanam – Nagendraharay Trilochnay.
