The Shiva
manasa pooja by Sri Adi Shankaracharya is a unique stotra. It in in the form
of a prayer by a devotee who imagines in his mind all the offerings and
rituals prescribed in a pooja and offers them to lord Shiva with faith and
devotion. This stotra is an eye opener to those who are fanatic about
rituals as it clearly shows that faith and intentions are more important!

I have imagined a throne of precious stones for you, cool water for you to
bathe in, divine robes adorned with many jewels, sandalwood paste mixed with
musk to anoint your body, jasmine and champaka flowers and bilva leaves,
rare incense, and a shining flame. Accept all these which I have imagined in
my heart for you, o merciful God.

Sweet rice in a golden bowl inlaid with the nine jewels, the five kinds of
food made from milk and curd, bananas, vegetables, sweet water scented with
camphor, and betel leaves - I have prepared all these in my mind with
devotion. O lord, please accept them.

A canopy, two yak-tail whisks, a fan and a spotless mirror, a viinaa,
kettledrums, a mridangA and a great drum, songs and dancing, full
prostrations, and many kinds of hymns - all this I offer you in my
imagination. O almighty lord, accept this as my worship of you.

You are my self; Paarvatii is my reason. My five praanaas are your attendants,
my body is your house, and all the pleasures of my senses are objects to use
for your worship. My sleep is your state of samaadhii. Wherever I walk I am
walking around you, everything I say is in praise of you, everything I do is
in devotion to you, o benevolent lord!

Whatever sins i have committed with my hands, feet, voice, body, actions,
ears, eyes, or mind, whether prohibited by the scriptures or not, please
forgive them all. Hail! Hail! O ocean of compassion! O great god! O
benevolent lord! .. 5
