Śiva-pañcākṣara-stotram śloka 3

The syllable "śi" represents auspiciousness and purity. The verse begins with "śi" and focuses on the meanings associated with it.
The term "śivāya" refers to Lord Śiva, who is considered the auspicious one and the supreme purifier. Being associated with Him or hearing about Him brings great auspiciousness and purification.
"Gaurī" refers to Pārvatī, Lord Śiva's consort. They are not just husband and wife but are considered inseparable and two aspects of the same divine Being. Lord Śiva represents the formless and attributeless Brahman, while Pārvatī represents the same Brahman with qualities. Together, They embody the perfect union of transcendence and creation.
This understanding highlights the unity and oneness of Lord Śiva and Pārvatī, representing the inseparability of male and female principles and the cosmic dance of creation and dissolution.
