“Hear me recite those thousand and eight names of the great Śarva. Hearing those names, O foremost of all men, you shalt be crowned with fruition in respect of all your wishes.”

Namaste. Welcome now to the finale, the conclusion, and the summary of the introduction to the 1008 names of Lord Śiva. This introduction was taken from the Bhīṣma-parva, Chapter 17, I think it is, of the Mahābhārata.

And in this sage Upamanyu, who is a resident of Kailāśa, is speaking to Kṛṣṇa and the assembled gods and sages and devotees in honor of the passing away of Bhīṣma. And he's giving an extraction of the 10,000 names of Śiva that were originated by Lord Brahmā in the very early days of the universe, many, many millions and billions of years ago.

So now he has introduced these thousand names and their significance and their importance. And so he offers one concluding verse to Kṛṣṇan and the assembled sages, summarizing his introduction to the Thousand Holy Names of Lord Śiva.
