The month of Sawan continues and in this holy month of Lord Shiva, the devotees are completely immersed in the devotion of Shiva. People worship Lord Shiva and the Lord is pleased with the devotion of his devotees and fulfils their wishes. Shiva also frees his devotees from the fear of death. If you are troubled by the fear of death, then you should chant this mantra of Shiva.

This mantra is known as the Mahamrityunjaya Mantra.

"ऊं भूः भुवः स्वः ऊं त्रयम्बकं यजामहे सुगन्धिं पुष्टिवर्धनम्।
उर्वारुकमिव बन्धनान् मृत्योर्मुक्षीय मामृतात। "

There is another big form of this mantra, which is known as Pranrakshak and Mahamoksha which should be chanted with utmost precision and without any wrong pronunciation and only when any very serious problem arises. 

ऊं हौं जूं सः। ऊं भूः भुवः स्वः ऊं त्रयम्बकं यजामहे  सुगन्धिं पुष्टिवर्धनम्।
उर्वारुकमिव बन्धनान् मृत्योर्मुक्षीय मामृतात।। ऊं स्वः भुवः भूं ऊं। ऊं सः जूं हौं।
