Shiva – The Eternal Mystic

This post is also available in: हिन्दी

This entire universe is made up of the five elements , the Pancha Mahabhootas : Prithvi , Agni, Jala, Vayu and Akasha. Shiva represents the manifestation of the Pancha Mahabhootas. Shiva is present in each and every bit of this universe. It is said even a blade of grass doesn’t move to the wind without the permission of Shiva.

The entire world invokes the energy of Shiva in many forms. People do Pooja and Abhishekam. Some people sing and dance in his name. While some people meditate!

Shiva is an experience. An eternal truth. One who is not affected by three Gunas – Sattva, Rajas and Tamas.

Yet the story of Shiva remains an untold secret!

Does he really open his third eye?

Did he really drink poison for this world?

Why is he called the Mahadeva or the greatest God?

Why is he called Vishwanatha or the Lord of the Universe?

Why does he decorate a snake round his neck?

Gurudev expounds the secrets of Shiva – The Eternal Mystic as a prelude to Mahashivratri.
