<>Shiva is a word that seems to belong to the Indian culture, but what it represents is something Universal, exceptionally necessary now in any culture and especially in the West, in the era of maximum spiritual decay in which we live and of significant alleviation of the manifestation of the Eternal Masculine in the lives of people.
Shiva, consciousness and consciousness, the Eternal Masculine – is the qualitative aspect of being, while inseparable from Him is the aspect of power, energy or intensity, the quantitative aspect – Shakti.
Shiva is masculine in relation to the aspect of power, which is feminine.
Shiva is infinity and transcendence (without being separated from immanence) and can manifest as being both immanent and transcendent – the model, ideal state, to which people aspire even without knowing it, seeking to live life as fully but also as pure as possible.
Shiva is the Center, it is the Essence, it is the Miracle and the Divine.
He structures the universe and generates the meaning of existence, he is the sacred, the ultimate aspect, the Supreme god – Mahadev.
There are several perspectives about Shiva:
– the aspect of consciousness, inseparable from its Shakti
energy – the aspect of transcendence, which transcends all limits and which sustains and controls Everything
– the level of consciousness characterized to manifest itself at the same time transcendent and immanent – the absolute spirituality lived in the midst of
life – one of the aspects that make up the Hindu triad Trimurti – Brahma (the Creator), Vishnu (the Sustainer) and Shiva (the One who reabsorbs the Universe in his Heart or the Destroyer); he is different from Brahma and Vishnu and yet one with them
– the Eternal Masculine, God – in the hypostasis of the Supreme Man.
When worshiped as Ishvara – any particular aspect or facet of the Supreme Being He can be understood under many fascinating divine hypostases – He is, for example,
The pure one,
The Supreme Spiritual Master,
is the Sovereign of Love,
The Supreme Lover,
Father Absolute,
The proponent of any being (no matter how spiritually backward he may be),
The Supreme Yogi,
The Good and All-Forgiving God,
The Omniscient and the Omnipotent,
is the Good Shepherd of beings who seek spiritual light,
is the Sovereign of Manifestation (or the World),
it is the terrible and sudden purifying One of the World of wickedness and ignorance,
he is the Immutable One, completely immune to any disturbance, interference or poison,
he is the one who sustains any spiritual evolution,
he is the Cosmic Dancer and thus exists in every aspect of manifestation,
he is the Savior of the entire world,
the Lord of Time and… More.
Shiva is Ananta, the one who is never born and never dies.

In benevolent aspects, he is described as an all-knowing yogi who lives an ascetic life on Mount Kailasa, as well as a husband with wife Parvati and their two children, Ganesha and Kartikeya.
Shiva is also considered to be the patron god of the arts and the transformative spiritual path of yoga.
The main attributes of the Shiva iconographic are the third eye on the forehead, the serpent Vasuki around his neck, the crescent ornament, the holy river Ganga flowing from the tangled hair, the Trishula – the trident – symbol of Unity in Diversity and the drum damaru as a ritual instrument.
Shiva is usually worshipped in symbolic form through his Lingam, a form of worship that is characterized by great efficiency.
Five is a sacred number for Shiva.
The worship of Shiva is a pan-Hindu tradition, widely practiced in India, Nepal and Sri Lanka.
Shiva forms a tantric couple with Shakti, the embodiment of energy, dynamism. Shiva is the transcendent masculine aspect, providing the divine inner support of the existence of all beings.
Shakti manifests in several female deities. Sati and Parvati are the main consorts of Shiva. She is also referred to as Uma, Durga (Parvati), Kali, and Chandika.
Kali is the manifestation of Shakti in its terrible aspect. The name Kali comes from Kala, which means black, transcendence. In the various Hindu Shakta cosmologies as well as the beliefs of the tantric Shakta worshipers worship Them as the ultimate reality or Brahman. She is also revered as Bhavatārini – the savior of the Universe. Kali is depicted as the consort of the Sovereign Shiva, on whose body she is often seen standing or dancing.
Shiva is the masculine force, the power of peace, while Shakti translates to power and is regarded as the feminine force.
In the Vaishnava tradition, these realities are portrayed as Vishnu and Lakshmi or Radha and Krishna. Both Shiva and Shakti have different forms. Shiva has forms such as Yogi Raj (the common image of Him meditating in the Himalayas), Rudra (an angry form), and Nataraja, the dancer.
The symbolic and ritual dance of Shiva can be Lasya – a mild form of dance, associated with the creation of the world and Ananda Tandava – the terrible dance, associated with resorption.
Forms of meditation with Shiva (just a few):
– relating to the masculine essence manifested in any man
– meditation with yantra, corresponding mandala
– meditation relating to the phallic symbol – Shiva Linga
– meditation using special music appropriate for this purpose
– meditation with one of his mantras.
