Vedas and Puranas declare Shiva or Rudra as the Greatest Tattwa, The supreme god, The reason and the Cause of all the Effects of the Universe and they have described Shiva as greatest ultimate God. So SHIVA is the power of all the energy factor of the universe.
Vedas sing more eulogies of Shiva Rudra. Even from the very first Shloka Of Rig Veda they started Singing praises of Rudra Shiva and his major eight forms which covers entire universe with five elements and Pran, Atman and Pradhan. It starts with praises of Shiva Rudra from very first Shloka, “Agni milite Purohitam” , (Agni is Shiva or Rudras form one of his eight Vedic manifestations). There are several Suktas dedicated only to him. In Rig Veda and in fact same is the case with other three Vedas, Rudra Shiva is glorified everywhere and even whole Upanishads are dedicated to him only.
The Gyan khand of Vedas which is main part of Vedas metaphysical science is known as Upanishads. Now among 108 Valid Upanishads of Muktika Cannon from all four Vedas more than 42 + (16 unpublished Upanishads) are dedicated to Shiva exclusively and inclusively. And That is more than half of total text, And that is much much more than any other single Gods eulogy in Vedas, How else glory of greatest God would be sung if not like this.
In the Shatarudriya and in the whole Veda, Rudra is called Siva, Sankara, Sambhu, Isana, Isa, Bhagavan, Bhava, Sarva, Ugra, Soma, Pasupati, Nilagriva, Girisa, Mahadeva and Mahesvara among thousands of other names.
