To understand SHIVA, I'll just put something here, if there happens that all gods and demons were fighting each other for heaven, which it does many times in Hindu mythology, and when they are fighting, and suddenly SHIVA appears, both gods and demons will stop fighting and bow infront of SHIVA, because they knew SHIVA is all righteous, he doesn't discriminate, he is just!! Many occasions in history of text, SHIVA punished many gods to give justice to demons!! That's why SHIVA is called "Mahadev" means The God Of Gods!! Jai Mahakal!!

@@Dude408f in that story Shiva went back to meditate and it was suras and asuras who went to try and calm the young Ganesha . But it was when shivas sacred nandi got hurt that he was mad . That this young boy was not even listening that's when he threw his trident . After that Vishnu and other gods informed Shiva that this was his son and parvati came out because of all the noise and saw her son on the ground . With rage her forms of rage ( Kali ) and the form of warrior ( Durga ) all forms came out and started destroying everything . And because it was shivas trident who cut off Ganeshas head it couldn't be reattached . So instead he sent nandi and other gods to find any infants head whos mother was sleeping with her back towards the new born child ( a sign of not caring for her own children) that's when they found the infant elephant who was just born and her mother was sleeping with her back towards him : and then you know what happened

Close Rishabh. Close. However. Don't allow yourself to be fooled by incorrect knowledge. Please go for true Jnana Yoga. The video's title is completely erroneous and an insult to Shiva and humanity. First of all. There is only Shiva. I repeat. There is only Shiva. Shiva is not a destroyer for Shiva Itself Is. Shiva is simply in constant motion so to be able to experience constant companionship. Companionship verily the purpose of Shiva. Most people know it by this four letter word called LOVE.

Interesting. One of the main problems i have with Abrahamic God is that he is often portrayed in the Old Testament as bloodthirsty and warmongering and relying on violence and inflicting pain to solve conflict even if it comes down to his own chosen people (Israelites) which in of itself is yet another problem of favoritism which shouldn't exist in my opinion.

[@rishabhverma4735]

@E L I A S ofcourse i don't have any obligation to make you believe in shiva , it is completely upto you , first you know him then you decide yourself it's upto you. But you also don't have any right to take me as a fool if my belief is different than you. May be you don't know something or may be vice versa. That's the concept we follow in Sanatan Dharma or as we call it Hinduism. And that's the difference between a Dharmic religion and an Abrahmic religion. So first try to learn about basics of a culture and society and try to understand their meanings and believes before you call a fool, alright. Now.. for me Shiva is a God, a supreme Being whome we can not even understand him completely, and for a mare Human who lives on tiny room on a tiny planet on a galaxy among millions of galaxies on a universe among billions of universes who live only for on average 100 years who thinks he knows things he is a well read , intelligent scientific person for a person like this who is nothing but a dust particle in cosmos. It is easy to say that Shiva is a mythological character and his idea isn't real.

@@J.Kunda98 True, but you're speaking about Abrahamic Belief, which holds no association whatsoever, to the Hindu evolution of religion and culture. The Abrahamic God was the concept of belief to the far west of Asia. And moreover even within Hindu Religion the believers consist of different people with different ways of practicing religion, sometimes overlapping, in the ways of different Gods, instead of just one God, but at the end all practices lead to Him.

[@JKProduction8]

First of all, by calling Shiva a destroyer, he does not become a Vellanious God.For Shiva, all people are equal, whether he is a normal person or a devil, Shiva does not discriminate between anyone.Death is just like Shiva, it does not discriminate between anyone and one day it comes to everyone.In Hindu religion it is said that death is The Nature's Law Death is the last and final truth of the world which nature has created.Nature gives us both life and death, so should we consider nature as evil?Similarly Shiva is good for good and bad for bad.And anyway, Shiva is incomplete without nature because nature(She) is Shiva's wife.

If you want to understand what Shiva is: he is beyond what you can term as a "God", he is the reason why Gods even came into existence. He is nothing, he is the darkness within space, the emptiness between matter, he holds the universe together. His third eye is not a weapon of destruction, but the doorway to the ultimate truth, the key who the highest realm of consciousness. Shiva is nothing and Shiva is everything. Lord Brahma created the universe, Lord Vishnu (Krishna & Rama are his avatars) preserve it, but Shiva's manifestation and tandav is the reason why this creation could even come into existence, he is not the Supreme God, he is the reason why the Supreme God even exists. He is the glue that holds time, space, matter and souls together. To understand him better, every living being is a part of a giant tree of consciousness and Shiva's locks are the roots of this tree. His avatar Adiyogi was the first yogi, who invented Yogi, the physical series towards nirvana, Kaal Bhairav, a fierce God of Destruction, Death & Time, Rudra, a warrior avatar that represents strength, and so on...Hope I could plant a small seed in your head about the concept of Shiva.

The god Shiva is one of the most important figures in the Hindu belief. His name literally means “the auspicious one”, but his most common epithet is “the destroyer”. He takes on many forms in Hindu scripture and is said to have 1008 names. One of the most common names for him is “Mahadeva”, meaning “great god”. Most commonly, he is seen as one third of the trimurti, the three holiest gods. He is one of the most complex and mysterious gods in the Hindu tradition because of his paradoxical nature.

Sati is always been half part of shiva from the beggining. Shiva is also god of weapon because he has the strongest weapon. Because he's the destroyer. Many weapon he has given to his devotees which includes vishnu, who has the chakra of shiva. In the beggining shiva is portrait as a energy which has neither begging nor ending. It's said each universe has a destroyer, creator & preserver. Which means in every universe there's a single shiva. Which will destroy the universe & from the destruction another universe will be originated. & The loop of universe will continue. Also it's said our universe is the smallest among all. & Actual true God doesn't live in any universe which might be those gods which live in universe are just a small clones of gods. It's said the place where actual god lives no living being with there physical body can reach.

[@kindle184]

Well I think there is only one shiva since there is only one vishnu with his each breath "maha kalpa" a universe passed a universe created. And shiva said to be the one who is just there ever present and have no beginning as his other name suggest. In hinduism there is something called KAAL which mean all ecompassing time. But shiva other name is MAHAKAAL which means beyond time and death. But in Rig veda its mentioned that Brahman(not brahma) is where everything start from and everything that is or everything that ever will be or every was is part of brahman and everything at its end will return to brahman. So you could be right. Since hinduism does have a multiverse concept.

@@kindle184 go through Krishna explanation about multiverse universe to Bhrama. There are unlimited universe which has it's own creator, destroyer & preserver.

There are some explanation about it in yotube. There might be millions universe, which has it's own million bhrama,vishnu & shiva.

Our true self is not our body or our mind but Atman, so to get enlightened one has to control the mind and body, if one is successful in achieving the state where duality ceases to exist then you achieved moksha. So If you say it's true then you have a higher probability of achieving enlightenment.

When he drank the poison and it started going in, Parvati came and kept her hand on his throat to stop the poison from going inside that's how his throat turned blue because the poison is there. Shiva accepted all those things which no one else did, the poison, the snake, the moon, the heavy Ganges flow, ghosts, bull, mirgchaala, ashes etc

5:50 Shiva knew who the boy was and the reason he beheaded him was because he was very arrogant and proud of himself that he refused to respect his father and other deities. The reason Ganesha was made out of clay is that when Shiva's wife parvati was doing hard penance to marry shiva the god of lust came and said that why doing so hard penance to marry shiva i will use my powers on shiva to make him love you. So when god of lust tried to used his powers on shiva he opened his third eye and turned him into ashes. So god of lust's wife seeing his husband turned into ashes cursed god shiva and goddess parvati that she will not be able to give birth to a child by her womb. And there are no such thing as dark side of shiva and he never side with evil beings it is that he never discriminates. And there are many many false derogatory stories made intentionally by people to demean sanatana dharma. And don't use the word demon there is no concept of demons in Hinduism like in the bible.

[@Dude408f]

So, he beheaded the boy because the boy was arrogant... Wouldn't that arrogance be blamed on his father, himself? Beheading is the appropriate punishment? If so, why resuscitate him? If the punishment is fair, there's no reason. If it's unfair, that puts the justice of Shiva in question.

Shiva is carefree individual who 99 percent of the time is in own world. He has the power to destroy the universe. It's all just the story. I think the lesson from Shiva is living life in carefree manner not being easily bothered by outside reality. Unlike other gods Shiva getting angry is rarest site in the myth.

[@akashdeepscorpion5068]

Another name for Shiva is Rudra which means cry or roar. Let his anger be the rarest sight coz blve me brother no one wants to see the anger of Shiva as it is also clearly mentioned in the scriptures that what happens when Shiva is legit angry.

[@julliannwinston5308]

As per Hindu mythology, Shiva existed before existence, which means he is the father of all Skyfathers and celestials, so Zeus probably is one of Shiva's creation or a creation of a lesser being like a celestial. Zeus is the god of sky but Shiva is a God of all Gods. 🐂

[@Enlightened23]

in India ZEUS is called Indra. I mean Indra and Zeus r very similar. Both r lightening God and Both r kings of heavens. Only difference is that beyond this, Greek Mythology doesn't exist as Zeus is supreme God their but here Brahma, Vishnu, Mahesh(shiva) is holy trinity or deity who have created whole Universe and All other Gods and existence. Even beyond this concept of trinity, we have concept of Parabrahmana. Shiva, Vishnu and Brahma just represent qualities and character of same Parabrahmana who is ultimate reality of everything, all pervasive and omnipresent while energy of Parabrahmana is represented by Shakti (The mother of whole Universe).
