Literal Meaning of the Maha Mrityunjaya Mantra
Word to Word meaning of the Maha Mrityunjaya Mantra:-


 * ॐ oṁ = is a sacred/mystical syllable in Sanatan Dharma or Indian religions, i.e. Hinduism, Jainism, and Buddhism,Om
 * त्र्यम्बकम् tryambakam = the three-eyed one (accusative case),
 * त्रि + अम्बकम् = tri + ambakam = three + eye


 * यजामहे yajāmahe = We worship, adore, honour, revere,
 * सुगन्धिम् sugandhim = sweet smelling, fragrant (accusative case),
 * पुष्टि puṣṭi = A well-nourished condition, thriving, prosperous, fullness of life,
 * वर्धनम् vardhanam = One who nourishes, strengthens, causes to increase (in health, wealth, well-being); who gladdens, exhilarates, and restores health; a good gardener,
 * पुष्टि-वर्धनम् = puṣṭi+vardhanam = पुष्टि: वर्धते अनेन तत् = puṣṭiḥ vardhate anena tat (samas)


 * उर्वारुकमिव urvārukamiva = like the cucumber, melon (in the accusative case),


 * Note: Some people are using following explanation for urvārukam: 'urva' means "vishal" or big and powerful or deadly. 'arukam' means 'disease'. But urva (उर्वा) does not mean 'Vishal' in sanskrit but oorva (ऊर्वा); so this translation is not correct.


 * बन्धनान् bandhanān = "from captivity" {i.e. from the stem of the cucumber} (of the gourd); (the ending is actually long a then -t which changes to n/anusvara because of sandhi)
 * Note: bandhanān means bound down. Thus read with urvārukam iva, it means 'I am bound down just as a cucumber (to a vine)'.


 * मृत्योर्मुक्षीय mṛtyormukṣīya = Free, liberate From death
 * मृत्यु: + मुक्षीय = mṛtjuḥ + mukṣīya= from death + free (Vedic usage)


 * मामृतात् māmṛtāt = (give) me immortality, emancipation
 * Note: Here are two possible combinations
 * 1) मा + अमृतात् = mā + amṛtāt = not + immortality, nectar
 * Translation would be: (Free me from death but) not from immortality.
 * 2) मा (माम) + अमृतात् = mā (short form of mām) + amṛtāt = myself + sure, definitely
 * Translation would be: Free me from certain death.
