http://slidepdf.com/reader/full/shiv-tandav-strotam- 3/33
It is said that Lord RAMA had worshiped Lord SHIVA at
Rameshwaram ( situated in the Indian state of Tamilnadu) for the
success of his offensive on RAVANA, King of Lanka, to free his (RAMA)
wife SITA, whom he ( RAVANA) had kidnapped and confined in his
Capital city. SHIVA got pleased from this worship and gave Boon of
success to RAMA, against his (Shiva’s) ardent follower RAVANA.
Taking clue from this story,
I felt that why not the entire civil
society should worship Supreme LOKPAL ( Lord Siva’s one
name is LOKPAL also) for the success of LOKPAL Bill
in the
SHRAVAN month of Hindu calendar, which is known as good month to
please Lord SHIVA, as ruling class of our country is robbing our
progress and prosperity by rampant corruption, so it is duty of civil
society to come forward and fight for this cause ( Creation of a strict,
effective and independent institution like LOKPAL against
corruption.) .
The SHIV TANDAV STROTAM is known as best pray to please the Lord
SHIVA and by chanting , listening or reading this STROTA, we will
create a SATVIK atmosphere, which will drive out the detractors of our
society.
So Just listen these mantras and share it with maximum people as it
is said that if this mantra is chanted by a million times, then it
became RUDRA YAGNA and that create a pious atmosphere.

The story of creation of the SHIV TANDAV Strotam
(
शवताडवःतत
) is a Sanskrit song or Mantra or Hymn written on
Lord Shiva which describes Lord Shiva's Power, Beauty
(Physical and Mental) and specially Tandava. Though this
song is considered as an Arya Geeti (the song of Aryans, a part
of Vedic culture), but it is said, the song was written
(dedicated) and sung by Visrava (father of Ravana) and
especially by Ravana (King of Lanka). It is also said that,
Ravana himself wrote and dedicated the song to Lord Shiva.
In Ramayana, we can see Ravana was a great follower of Lord
Shiva and he was thoroughly blessed by Lord Shiva. Ravana
got Lord Shiva's blessings and assurances (बाभय) by very hard
mental and physical prayer (तपःया). The word 'Tandava'
means 'Destruction', which is also a part of 'Taal' [the word
'Taal', which is a very essential part of Indian music, is the
combination of 'Tandava' (which is considered as Lord Shiva's
dance form) and Lashya (which is considered as Goddess
Parvati's dance form). The fourth and fifth quatrains of this
hymn conclude with lists of Shiva's epithets as destroyer, even
the destroyer of death itself.

Why LOKPAL Bill:
Corruption is a reality and we have to accept it. Few
Bureaucrats world over since ages in any
administration, be it feudal or democratic , are
corrupt. For Preventing the spread of this problem and
turning it in to a menace, We need a strong, speedy,
transparent and effective mechanism of trial and
punishment against corruption . In USA also, ENRON
like Scandals happens, but in-spite of clout of
Mr. Kenneth Lay ( Chairman of ENRON), over BUSH
administration (he was largest donor to the Bush
Election campaign), he ( Kenneth Lay) and his
associates. were prosecuted and sentenced to as much
as 45 yrs jail and Millions of $ were recovered from
their estates as fines, within a year of beginning of
trial. Where as trial against RAJU (SATYAM) is still
pending and Mr. SWAMI has to wait for more then a
year to file a case against RAJA.

Corruption effects our society from all spheres. Let look atit’s effects on society.
• On our Economy : The ill gotten money heads to safe
havens in international currencies like US$. That means webuy US $, thus transfer our wealth to the US or othercountries. India used to be called Golden Bird, but Britishhad looted us systematically and transferred our wealth toEUROPE. After independence, it was expected that this loot
will stop and we will be able to use our resources for ourdevelopment, but unfortunately, corrupt Bureaucrats,
hand in glove with politicians replaced the British and
our wealth is still heading to West and ,making them
richer.
•On our Society: Socially our values are deterioratingbecause ill gotten money is lavishly spend in socialoccasion like marriage and luxuries, thus promptingsociety at a large for corruption and hitting our greatmoral values.
7/23/2019 Shiv Tandav Strotam-
http://slidepdf.com/reader/full/shiv-tandav-strotam- 25/33
•On Our Development:
because of this corruption,benefits of social spends doesn’t reach in right handsand goes to few hands thus leaving society at largeundeveloped thus creating unreal distribution of
wealth and hitting our growth.•On National Security:
Due to corruption, illegal activities such as extortion , illegal mining, illegaltransfer of money (HAVALA) etc. spreads and this
money goes in the hands of anti social elements thusharm our national security also. Look at the internalsecurity scenario of our country. It is worseningbecause of rampant spread of corruption .
•On Environment:
Corruption leads to excessive anduncontrolled exploitation of natural resources, whichleads to destruction of ecology. Gandhi had said“Mother nature have enough for men’s requirements
but it can’t fulfill the greed of even a one greedy”.

Reason of Opposing the Government Draft
Without Police powersLOKPAL will be surelyineffective. Even if the report
of Lokpal is accepted, whowill file the charge sheet inthe court? Who will initiateprosecution? Who willappoint the prosecutionlawyer? The entire bill issilent on that
Lokpal would have policepowers. The wing of CBI
which deals withcorruption cases, will beunder the LOKPAL. It willbe able to register FIR,proceed with criminalinvestigations andlaunch prosecution
Lokpal has not beengiven police powers.Therefore Lokpal cannotregister an FIR. It willrefer the case to thedesignated authority.
Police Powers to LOKPAL
2
Will designated authoritieslike speakers of Loksabha/
Rajyasabha/ PM/ ChiefSecretary allow any case ofruling party MPs orgovernment officials? It willgive ruling party powers tobe selective in referring thecases. Even it could close the
window of investigationthrough CBI.
Lokpal will have powers to
initiate investigationssuo moto in any case andalso to directly entertaincomplaints from thepublic. It will not needreference or permissionfrom anyone to initiate
investigation into anycase
LOKPAL proposed bygovernment will be just
an advisor body, whichwill act only on therecommendations ofdesignated authoritiesfor forwarding the casesto LOKPAL The generalpublics will make
complaints to thedesignated authorities

If government succeeds,BOFORCE could not beinvestigate in future. We areseeing the case of Justice
Dinakaran. Common manannually pays bribe, in tuneof 21,068 crore (US$4.7billion) for 11 basic serviceslike education. Judiciary,healthcare, police etc. Only
Truckers pay 48,680 crore,appx. (US$5 billion in bribes)in 2010, and this amount isshared between the localpoliticians, local officials inthe form of bribe for thelucrative postings by public
servants and we can see thatour present system is notadequate to save commonman. Un-till unless this issuetaken seriously, commonpeople will not feel the
difference
Civil society LOKPAL willLokpal will have
jurisdiction overpoliticians, officials and
judges. CVC and the
entire vigilancemachinery ofgovernment will bemerged into Lokpal.There will beLOKAYUKTAs in states for
lower ranking officials.
Government LOKPALexcludes PM (cases
which deals withforeign affairs,security anddefense), Judiciaryand lower ranks ofBureaucracy from
the LOKPAL
Inclusion of PM, judiciary and lower ranking bureaucrats

The reason of rampantcorruption is fearless ofcorrupts due to negligible
punishment andretaining the ill gottenwealth. So Govt. bill willnot make any impact.Only recovery of ill gottenwealth and strict
punishment keep peopleaway from corruption.
Loss caused to thegovernment due to
corruption will berecovered from allaccused. Enhancedpunishment - Thepunishment would beminimum 5 years and
maximum of lifeimprisonment.
Nothing has been providedin law to recover ill gottenwealth. A corrupt person can
come out of jail and enjoythat money.Under thepresent law, there is Smallpunishment for corruption- Punishment for corruptionis minimum 6 months and
maximum 7 years .
Punishment & recovery of ill gotten money
5
So the bill appears to bemeant to browbeat,threaten and discouragethose fighting against
corruption. Large numbersof people raising their voiceagainst political corruptionare being murdered, so insuch scenario, how can weexpect people will comeforward against
corruption?
Deterrence has beenprovided againstfrivolous complaints inthe form of financial
penalties against thecomplainant, Lokpal will have powers toprovide protectionagainst physical andprofessionalvictimization of
whistleblowers
There is a strongpunishment for frivolouscomplaints. Lokpal will
have the power to sendthe complainant to jailthrough summary trialbut if the complaint werefound to be true, theLokpal will not have thepower to send the corrupt
politicians to jail!
Frivolous complaints and Security to Whistle Blowers

As I have already mentioned earlier, idea of this video istaken from the SHIV PUJA by Lord RAMA at Rameshwaram, sowe all should pray Lord SHIVA to gain his (SHIVA) blessingbecause the fight of Civil Society for effective LOKPAL Bill is ourfight, as it is against Corruption which is effecting our life,
our progress and our future.Continued..

This fight will not be an easy one, but ultimately, the civilsociety will win, because we are fighting for a noble cause,bringing comfort to the millions of lives, enable them(common man of this country) to get their rightful duesfrom the government, for which they ( common man,including us) only pay in the form of taxes.
We should not be dishearten with the government stand
as Have you ever heard that a thief had allowed
prosecution against his/her theft?
We should readyourselves for the 2014 election because then the politicalclass has to come back to the same civil society. We need togo to the masses and make them understand theimportance of not only LOKPAL Bill but other reforms also
so that when the political class comes to the public for the
re-elections, people should ask them for a written
commitments on these rightful demands, so that if they fail
in delivering those demands, people can go to the court for
proceeding for betrayal on written commitments.

We need to ready for a prolonged fight as 2-3 yrs is nothingin the life of a nation, because nations lives thousands of
years and this nation is even agile. We have example ofCHANAKYA with us from our own history. How come ahumble teacher had overthrown a powerful empire, when he
felt that the empire is not performing its nationalist dutiesand is a threat to the security of nation against theexternal dangers to the country, at the times, when militarypowers used to be needed for change of regimes. Today weare having comfort of democracy by the grace of our
nationalist leaders, and political class has to comeback tomasses after every five years.
We can do many thing. The another idea could be till 16th ofthis month, people are thronging the SHIVA Temples across
the country. Why can’t we organize the recitation of SHIVMAHIMNA STROTAM in our local temple at a time and datefixed, which could be conveyed to the devotees through aposter and at the fix date, we can distribute the literatureprinted in local language describing the need of LOKPAL
