Use and meaning of mantra:
This mantra supports mental, emotional and physical health, longevity, concentration and transformation of awareness. It protects, guides and links you with your deeper nature. It is said in the scripture of Rudra that when chanted at the right time and conditions it can save a person's life.

Translation:
We worship the three-eyed one (Lord Shiva), 
Who is fragrant (spiritual essence) and who nourishes all beings.
May he severe our bondage of samsara (worldly cycle of life and death), like a cucumber (severed from the bondage of its creeper) and thus liberate us from the fear of death by making us realize that we are never separated from our immortal nature.
