Gurujii, there are so many siddhantas, which leading to confusion, one is condemning the other is not at all good for fraternities which induces discrimination, disparities so that unity is crippled. As I understand shiva is ultimate parabrahm below that Trinity and their consorts who got to do certain predetermined duties. The basic goal of a soul is to attain moksh, instead trying for that we are all heading in opposite directions. Let us recall the story of Vishnu and brahma who had failed to see the end and beginning of jyotirling. Which is advaita. So I strongly believe advaita while forgetting all other. Shankaracharya was reincarnation of Lord shiva who made compelled to come to this mortal world to drive away the Dissolution souls filled with all over at particular time line. Sorry if my comment hurts anyone. 🙏
