REGENERATOR

 

REGENERATOR

It is better to think of Shiva as a regenerator, not destroyer.

Every Shivratri, He comes out fresh with new beginnings,

but this does not mean the old is destroyed,

rather it is merged into it's own new avatar,

thawed from a frozen time, back to the spring of the present,

with re-inventions in some parts, but with all the beauty of the past.

~ Shail Gulhati: Shiva and Mysticism.
