Shiva is everything as the ultimate consciousness. But when
He manifests in form, it is male. Here too, He is inseparable from His consort, parvati, who is female, together they are called Ardhanarishwar, the God that is indistinguishable in gender.Ardhanarishwar, the androgynous representation, of Lord Shiva and Parvati, is an extremely beautiful Shaivic symbollism. It denotes the perfect repose of Prakasa (illumination) and vimarasa (reflection of that illumination on itself, therefore its power, to do). This is yin yang, being and becoming, in physics, potential and kinetic energy.
