The lyrics to Jacob Tillberg's song "Mantra" are a chant in Sanskrit, an ancient language from India. It is a prayer to Lord Shiva, one of the most powerful and revered deities in Hinduism. The first line, "Karpur Guaram Karunavataram," can be translated to mean "white as camphor, with compassion in his heart," while the following lines describe Lord Shiva as the destroyer of worldly attachment and the one who wears a king cobra around his neck. The chant ends with the singer offering their respects to Bhavani, a manifestation of the goddess Parvati, who is said to embody the energy of Lord Shiva.
The choice to include a traditional Hindu mantra in a modern electronic dance song is an interesting fusion of two vastly different cultures. By incorporating the chant into a bass-heavy and synth-driven track, Tillberg creates a unique soundscape that blends the ancient with the contemporary. The repetitive nature of the mantra also serves to create a trance-inducing effect, allowing listeners to meditate or lose themselves in the music.

Of all the mantras dedicated to Lord Shiva, Karpur Gauram Karunavtaaram is considered as pure as a white lotus. It is said devotee chanting this mantra feels spiritual ecstasy as this mantra glorifies Shiva in the highest order.
karpūragauraṁ – The one who is as pure/white as camphor (Karpur).
karuṇāvatāraṁ – The personification of compassion.
sansārsāram – The one who is the essence of the world.
bhujagendrahāram – The one with the serpent king as his garland.
sadāvasantaṁ hṛdayāravinde – Always residing in the lotus-like heart. Where, Hridaya aravinde means, ‘in the heart, that is (as pure as) lotus’. Lotus, though born in the muddy waters, is untouched by the mud around it. Similarly, Lord Shiva always (Sada) resides (Vasantham) in the hearts of beings that are not affected by worldly matters.
bhavaṁ – To the Lord
bhavānīsahitaṁ namāmi – Accompanied by the Goddess Bhavani (A form of Goddess Parvati, Shiva’s consort), I bow.

Zirox420 It is Sanskrit. People in India used to speak it thousand of year before christ. But now its just like Latin. Its the language of Hindu literature. We don't speak it now but most of us know this language. Its always cool to learn a very old language just so you can directly read what someone had in his mind 3-4thousand years ago😄
@RaoulWB
@@kiritsolankii6423 I completely agree with you! As an Italian that's used to translating Latin at school, being able to read and understand something of over 2000 years old literature is fascinating
