Chandrashekara Ashtakam is said to have been written by Sage Markandeya, an ancient Hindu Rishi who was saved by Chandrashekara or Lord Shiva from Lord of Death (Kala or Yama) at the age of 16 and blessed him to be 16 forever. In these verses, the sage seeks refuge in Chandrashekara, who is the destroyer of the various illusions and who is the personification of the three qualities and worshipped as the Lord of the Lords. βWhen he is by my side, what can the Lord of Death (Yama) do to me?β, asks Sage Markandeya.
