SHAMSHAN NATH AGHORA

 


Aghoras were the earliest and foremost Shamans to whom absolutely nothing mattered, other than proximity to their Lord Shiva, at all times.

MYSTIC DIMENSIONS

 


MYSTIC DIMENSIONS
In the morning, Sati awoke to see Shiva awake already. “A cup of tea for you?” He smiled.
“Yes, please,” She said.

WHAT WORK DO YOU DO, ASKED SATI ?

 


WHAT WORK DO YOU DO, ASKED SATI ?
“So, what work do you actually do?” Sati asked coyly like any newly married wife.
“I meditate,” Shiva answered.
“No, I meant what work do you do as in work?”

The original Bhaktini

 


One day, Shiva told Sati , “It is said of me that I do not incarnate. And yet I can vouch safe of your love that you are one who can make even Shiva manifest. That makes you an enchanting sorceress! The original Bhaktini indeed!”
“Me, a sorceress! And what are you?” She asked “You, who have hypnotized the whole Universe, especially me.”

TO MANIFEST A GOD

 


TO MANIFEST A GOD
“Place this bilva leaf over the top of the Shivalinga,” said the priest.
Himavat gently placed a leaf over the Shivalinga and Parvati followed suit with Her tender hands.
“Now hold the golden vessel firmly, and pour the water over the Shivalinga, and say Aum Namah Shivaye,” said the priest.
“Aum Namah Shivaye,” said Himavat loudly and poured water.
Parvati nodded Her head and carried out the priest’s instructions immaculately.
“Aum Namah Shivaye. Aum Namah Shivaye…”
A bilva leaf slid from the top and came to rest at the centre. It was the one that Parvati had placed. The priest was about to pick it up and put it back when he noticed something amazing:
The leaf had slid and come to such a strategic point, it started looking like the eyes and nose of the Shivalinga. The next words that the priest said, were to be forever etched into Parvati’s soul.
“You have made Shiva come alive!”
“Ah, but father, I am alive because of Shiva. We are all alive because of Him…”
Himavat smiled at his young daughter’s wisdom.

TIME

 


TIME
What time was it? In His case, the answer to that could be anything possible from any history book ever written, and so it was with real gratitude that He looked at His watch, which Nandi gifted to Him on one of their travels to the future. They did that often, Shiva and Nandi: travel to the future.
Shiva liked the insignia on top - an enigmatically winged hourglass. It reminded Him of His Damaru. “The Damaru…” He had once told Nandi,”is also an hourglass, if you look at it properly. It contains all the time that has been, and all that will be, and can flip the position of both, if you know how, Nandi,”
