" RUDRA ‘
’ refers to the god of storms, winds, hails etc. It is generally related to the fierce form of Lord Shiva. Rudram Yagna performed to worship Shiva is called Rudra Yagna. It is the most sacred and powerful among all the Maha Yagna, encompassing two Nishkama Karmas, namely, Deva Yagna (worship of Shiva and Other divinities), and Manushya Yagna (performed with Large devotees who partake prasadam or grace of the Lord). It is said that Lord Shiva performed Rudra Yagna after He killed Bhasmasura, with the help of Lord Vishnu, for the welfare of the humanity.
Rudram Yagna is performed, apart from various rituals such as Abhishekam etc of Shivalinga, by chanting the Sri Rudram Mantra from the Rigved. By chanting of this Mantra, Lord Shiva's various attributes and aspects are invoked and worshipped.
Scriptures claim high order spiritual and materialistic benefits for the participants in chanting. The Rudram chanting can be done with or without the Vedic Yagna ritual. When accompanied with the Vedic fire ritual, it is called the Rudra Yagna.
This powerful Mantra is composed of two Mantra: Namakam and Chamkam. ‘Namakam’ due to the repeated usage of the word ‘namah’ in Namakam, and ‘ch’ in Chamkam. In ‘Namkam’ a devotee invokes various attributes of Lord Shiva and prays Him to reveal His merciful nature. In Chamkam, devotee prays Lord Shiva for materialistic benefits such as wealth, property, cattle, free from fear and disease etc. Each of these Mantra is composed of eleven Anuvaks (sub Mantra). In his treatise Maharnava Karma Vipaka, sage Satapatha mentions following four types of Yagna, depending on how many times each of above Mantra are recited
The Rudra Yajna is the Most sacred and powerful among all the Maha Yajna's encompassing two Nishkama Karmas, namely, Deiva Yagna (worship of Shiva and Other divinities), and Manushya Yajna (performed with Large devotees who partake prasadam or grace of the Lord). It is very rare that a Yagnam of this significance and magnitude can be witnessed. Equally rare is the opportunity for the people to actually participate in the worship. This most powerful Yajna is done only with the Presence of a Divine Being and done in a most serene environment for meditation, spiritual study and practice. It is also done particularly for the sake of washing away ones sins and afflictions, for bringing peace, prosperity and happiness, along with family togetherness.
The Sri Rudram chant is an ancient Vedic hymn, and is the oldest example of a listing of various names of Lord Siva. Through the chanting of Sri Rudram, Lord Siva's various attributes and aspects are invoked and worshipped. Chanting the Rudram is considered to be of great benefit. The Rudram chanting can be done with or without the accompaniment of a Vedic yagna ritual. When accompanied with the Vedic fire ritual, it is called the Rudra Yagnam.
It is said that Lord Shiva after Basmasura was killed with the Help of Lord Maha Vishnu performed the Tandava Dance and then Performed the "Rudra Yagna" for the Betterment of Humanity, this Place where the Rudra Yagna was performed is where the "Sri Kalahasti" Temple*** stands now, this temple also has one of the 12 Jyothirlingas of Parameshwara.
