TRISHUL

Photo: TRISHUL

Trishul has great significance in Hindu Religion , it is in the hands of almost all the deities but it but  the significance  is even more when it is held by Lord Shiva or Goddess . now why Trishul has been given so much of significance in our culture does have a very deep meaning which is  beyond the apparent . let us try to understand …

Trishul is polyvalent and rich in nature  .  polyvalent== Having the property of counteracting several related poisons or giving  immunity against  many different strains of a microorganism . but  in our case it has the capacity to remove our  many different negative qualities which inhibit  us to be one with the almighty  so helps to makes us rich at spiritual level .

The three prongs of Trishul represents — trinity –brahma , Vishnu , Mahesh ; sarasvati , lakshami and kaali  ; 3—modes of nature –creation, maintenance and destruction  ;  the 3 –kaala—past, present and future  ;  the 3– Gunas – sat , raj , tam . 3– lokas—swarg , bhu and patal ; 3– powers—will , action and wisdom ; 3—types of miseries –physical , menatal and spiritual .

Lord Shiva’s Trishul is supposed to destroy —-the physical world—attachment to gross the illusionary  world which seems so real ; the world of the mind—the ahamkaar or ego which is a barrier between Me  and HIM -–thus transforms  to be in the third world that is the world of spirituality –thus leads to oneness Shiva into a single non-dual plane of existence, that is bliss alone.

the trishula  in human body  represents three  energy channels —ida, pingala and shushmana meet at the brow. Shushmana, the central one, continues upward to the 7th chakra, or energy center, while the other two end at the brow, there the 6th chakra is located. The trisula’s central point represents Shushmana, and that is why it is longer than the other two, representing ida and pingala.
