Enjoy having an ego, but remember to tame it, rather than let it tame you.

Photo: Of all the titles of Lord Shiva,  Pasupatinath is an extremely powerful one and it signifies a lot. He is the Lord of creatures,thus too this is a declaration of Him being the creator! It is a title given to Him by Brahma , when, accoding to mythology, he took birth as Rudra.He was  Brahma's mind born son. Shivji is widely known to be a forester: he lives in the mountains and jungles. This is a very subtle way of saying that He is a keen Ecologist: he never disturbs the balance of ecology, He respects Mother Nature and all shaivites worship Nature as a manifestation of the Divine Mother Parvati. 
This is the whole of the Shiva lila: Shiva and Shakti are the God And His Universe, of which we are a part.
Jai PasupatiNath !!

Shail Gulhati: Shiva and Mysticism.

There is nothing wrong about having an ego. If you have dignity, you will have ego.

The problem about ego only lies on people whose intention is not pure to the idea of helping, but on the idea of helping just to make themselves look good. If we do something, we should do it because we want to make things better. 

Enjoy having an ego, but remember to tame it, rather than let it tame you.
