A person whose intent is all love for Lord Shiva is already on the right path.
Lord Shiva is not trapped in any religion or faith. Shiva is Shiva, Shiva is everywhere, everything, and is not confined or limited to any doctrine, ritual, or image. Of the many gods, Shiva is the most ancient, and the most dynamic, with his image dynamically changing as to the wish, heart, and culture of the artist.
Shaivism is both eternal and yet dynamic and evolving. As we discover more of the mysteries of Shiva, we add more insight and knowledge. Shiva's philosophy is not trapped in time, is not limited to the story and conditions of the first time it was realized.
The images I chose to post, and get curses from many viewers, are pictures that are based on fact about Shiva. Shiva is not limited to your own preferred set of morals. Shaivism is beyond that, and the Shaivism we are presenting here is on its very advanced state.
To my dear brothers and sisters. Those who find themseles insulted by images or title, are not in the advanced understanding of Shaivism yet. If you are there, then you have realized some of the most powerful concepts of Shaivism.
That Lord Shiva is about Love, is about being unlimited, and is about enlightenment.
You can follow the rituals to the very core, but if your intent is for material gain, then you have not understood Shaivism.
When we look at the ritual in Shaivism, we should ask ourselves, "What is the practical and psychological purpose behind the ritual or prayer?"
As I have previously posted, Fasting for Shiva is actually good for us because it helps us detoxify by letting the body burn off old fats. People who do fruit fast once a week enjoy having their body completely absorb the nutrients found in fruits.
Before we go out and curse about how others are in Shaivism, or how they are non Hindu.
Take a pause and remember, if you do it for love, then Lord Shiva accepts it with open arms
