DISSOLUTION
You see,” Parvati explained softly, “human beings love to build things, and because they love to build, they view decay and dissolution as a tragedy. They imagine a perfect universe would be a permanent museum where nothing ever breaks, nothing ever fades, and nothing ever changes. But what would happen if the cosmic housekeeper never allowed anything to dissolve?”
Shiva turned to the seeker , his eyes reflecting the deep brilliance of the afternoon sky. “In our ancient understanding, we do not call this breakdown a flaw. We call it Samhara—the sacred act of cosmic dissolution. It is my role in the cosmic play. People often misunderstand Samhara as destruction, as something evil or angry. But it is not.”
From the book ‘ The Shiva Scientist’ by Shail Gulhati: Shiva and Mysticism.
