“Fire is his head, the sun and the moon his eyes, space his ears, the Vedas his speech, the wind his breath, the universe his heart.
From his feet, the Earth has originated. Verily, he is the inner self of all beings.”
- Anonymous, The Upanishads: Translations From Sanskrit To English
Shiva some say was there before the beginning and will survive till the end. Revered as lord of lords or Mahadev, he is known to consume all the poison emanating from the great “Samudra Manthan.” He represents both darkness and light, benevolence and fierceness, he is the balance between the evil and the good and is the master of all living beings irrespective of their form and nature.
“Untimely death, he dies, who does the work of a wretch, what can even the time do to those who worship Mahakaal.”
- Hindi Translation For A Religious Adage In Hinduism
Mahakaal is one amongst the most revered forms of Shiva who is known to protect the devotees from the clutch of Kaal or untimely death. However, the fiercely protective Mahadev is also said to be pleased by the simplicity and is the most humble God in Hinduism, which is why millions of devotees all across the globe worship and follow the path illuminated by the great ascetic.
Shiva – The Nataraja
I was listening to a really intriguing story about Shiva by a renowned storyteller Dr Seema Anand. It was a story I never heard before; somewhere in our world in a time unknown, Parvati, Shiva’s wife and his Shakti constructed a temple for the Lord, where he danced. It is said that Shiva who is often referred to as “Nataraja” used to enchant the mortal realm with his spellbinding performance there before the Gods descended to heavens.
The God who is worshipped in his fierce form is said to dance gracefully and the manifestation of Shiva as Nataraja has blessed our culture with beautiful dance forms like Bharatanatyam. The word Nataraja is a combination of two words Nata (Performer) and Raja (King), which is why in Hinduism he is proclaimed as the undisputed king of performance arts and dance.
In fact, even people from foreign cultures and lands admire this form of Lord Shiva and historic and modern artworks of Nataraja adorn some of the famed museums and art galleries all across the globe. These enchanting artworks portray the glory of multifaceted Shiva and emit an aura that inspires performers and artists of different genres.
