Lord Shiva and his family, have you tried to understand the symbolism. Shiva has got a deadly cobra around his neck. His son Ganesha rides on a mouse. Is it possible for a snake and a mouse to live together? Parvati has a tiger and Shiva has a bull. A snake lives with a mouse and a bull lives with a tiger. It’s a symbol of unity in diversity, learn to adjust your life in such a way that there is no conflict at all. You can do that. Things impossible can be made possible, provided you learn to understand life. So Shiva’s family tells us that there are disagreements, disparities in life; yet our goal is to be aware of, to establish the unity beneath all these diversities.

Or you can do it with meditation. There are always conflicts, confusion in relationships. A wife and husband living together with all the amenities of life, claim to love each other, yet remain frustrated. Because they do not understand themselves. How is it possible for them to understand the goal of life when they don't understand themselves first. Learn to understand everything about yourself. It doesn’t take much time. You don’t need a yogi, a scripture or anything. Just be thoughtful. Sit down for few minutes. A true yogi doesn't abandon world, he starts working with himself. Become good human being first. A human being has got three aspects: the animal aspect in the human being, the man in the human being, and the divine in the human being. All three combined is called a human being. The question is what degree of divinity is in you, what degree of the animal aspect, and what degree of humanness? I don't search for God. because God is in all of you. Anything that dwells in you is God. Try searching for a perfect human being. Make the effort to become good human beings, to love all and exclude none. Love all, love has the power to transform the world. And That is the way to the divine.!
Love & Peace ~ Jai Shri Mahakal !
