shrIkapAlIshvarAShTakam
INTRODUCTION--
Shri Kapalishvara is the name of Lord Shiva who is the presiding deity
at the ancient temple of Shiva in Mylapore, Chennai - the capital of
the State of Tamilnadu. His consort has the name Kalpakambal. Ashtakam
(aShTakam) means a poem consisting of eight verses. In this case
the verses are in praise of Shri Kapalishvara. He is praised here with
qualities referred to in the vedas, puranas and also as the Infinite
Supreme Being. This shows that it is the Supreme Being that appears as
Kapalishvara in the temple in Mylapore as any god in any other temple.
