In Hindu religion, Shiv shishya is a disciple of Lord Shiva who worships Shiva as their Guru Teacher. It is mentioned in various scriptures that Lord Shiva works as teacher and is often referred to as Adi Guru. One of the primary Shlokas, preaching state that 'Guru Brahma Guru Vishnu Guru Devo Maheshwara', which also tells the existence of Shiva as Guru. Tulsidas, who wrote Ramcharitmanas, considered himself as a disciple of Lord Shiva. In Hanuman Chalisa, he wrote "Shree Guru Charana Saroj Raja Nij Man Mukura Sudhari", where "Shree Guru" refers to Lord Shiva. Many Hindu followers consider Lord Shiva to be their Guru. It is estimated that there are 2 million devotees in India who worship Shiva as their Guru. Lord Shiva is associated with languages and grammar as well. India’s two ancient languages Sanskrit and Tamil originated from Lord Shiva. Sanskrit language follows the grammar written by Panini. Panini says that the letters and its sounds came from the beats of Shiva’s kettle drum ‘Damarukam’. The language formula is called Maheswara Sutrani. Tamil sage Agastya is also said to have learnt Tamil from Shiva and his son Kartikeya. 17th century Tamil poet Paranjothy Muni sang that Shiva taught Sanskrit and Tamil to both. He said that from one side of the kettle drum came Sanskrit and from the other came Tamil. His Followers usually chant "Namah Shivaya" to salute Shiva. They follow three sutras (rules) for being a disciple of Shiva ; Chanting "Namah Shivaya" 108 times in a day, Asking mercy from Shiva, Share their spiritual achievements to others as a Shiv Shishya! ๐๐
