Such is the beauty of Sanatana Dharma that one of the chief villains of its itihasas, Ravana and his scholarly work are accorded a special status in its treasure trove of spiritual riches.
The Shiva Tandava Stotram is one such exquisite composition by Ravana, and speaks of the Great Dance of Dissolution of Lord Shiva, the Tandava.
It describes how Lord Shiva moves
during the dance, and ends with the assurance that whoever recites this stotra
will be blessed by Lord Shiva.
In the video, I have broken down the lyrics to facilitate proper pronunciation, just as we did while learning to recite the shloka.
