Love Shiva and develop a relationship with him.

Image may contain: text

Love Shiva and develop a relationship with him. He deeply desires relationship with us and placed a hollow spot inside us that can be filled only by his Love. We want him because he wants us. He knows you inside and out. He made you, bit by bit, from nothing into something. Understand how great is his love for you. Shivas love, mercy, forgiveness and grace are revealed to us time to time. He wants your love too. Just honesty and depth, sincere love and devotion. That's how we need to communicate with Mahadev and that's how we can develop a deep love for him. Friends talk things over. So talk everything over with Shiva with no formality. Tell him all about your hopes and dreams and disappointments. Sit down and tell him everything in your heart as if he is right there beside you listening to every word, desire to develop a love for HIM. Recognise how deeply HE loves you, reciprocate that love and delve in deeper with him. Can you resist someone who loves you so sincerely? Consider HIM your best friend . Share everything in your life with him until you realise that yes, he is the one whom you can rely upon.! Chant his name, sing his glories ~ Har Har Har Mahadev ~ Om Namah Shivaya!! 📿🕉📿

Negative emotions can be described as any feeling which causes you to be miserable and sad. These emotions make you dislike yourself and others, and take away your confidence. Negative emotions can dampen your enthusiasm for life, depending on how long you let them affect you. It stops you from thinking and behaving rationally and seeing situations in their true perspective. This only prolongs the anger or grief and prevents you from enjoying life. The longer this goes on, the more entrenched the problem becomes. Dealing with negative emotions inappropriately can also be harmful. However you should not bottle them up either, which is harmful for your body. It's important to acknowledge emotions, especially distressing ones, and airing them from time to time is as important. A positive attitude is important in having success in life. Negative thinking can have a devastating impact on all aspects of our lives. Getting drawn into a pattern of negative thinking can be likened to building a prison in your own mind. It holds you captive. It's always possible to turn things around and cultivate inner peace and happiness. With proper understanding and a little practice you can transform your life from the inside out. If I can do it, why can't you! Don’t blow things out of proportion by going over them time and again in your mind. Try to accept that bad feelings are occasionally unavoidable and think of ways to make yourself feel better. Recognise negative thought patterns which serve no real purpose and directly cause negative emotions, which are a reflection of our thoughts. Once you identify these thought patterns as they occur you can start to have a choice about how to react. When any bad thought arises, ask yourself "is it useful?" If not then let to go. Think of something thats pleasant. This repeated process will prevent useless thoughts from bothering you. Learn to Relax, read, walk or talk to a friend. Exercise, it lowers your level of stress and allows you to cope better with negative emotions. Avoid negative people who insist on daily drama and negative talk. They produce negative vibes and the whole aura becomes negative. Even if this includes your family, you can avoid them. Let go of the past, constantly going over negative events robs you of the present and makes you feel bad!! Love, light & Peace ~ Hari Om Tat Sat Namah Shivaya ~ Jai Mahavir Hanuman! 🌀📿🌀
Namaste Dear All ~ Sarva Jana Sukhino Bhavantu!! 🙏🏻🙏🏻🙏🏻

SHIVA, THE DIVINE TEACHER

SHIVA, THE DIVINE TEACHER
Shiva had this generous habit: He gifted His attendants, the powers to be almost Shiva themselves. Gorakh Nath, Balak Nath and Shamshan Nath were just a few of the people, who, if they wanted, could conjure all three worlds from their magic bags.
But not once, in known history, had the ganas ever usurped power.
This was most unlike the Asuras, another primal race, who were actually the earlier cousins of the Devas. The Asuras had a peculiar trait of misusing power. Everyone knew the pattern.
They first performed penances for hundreds of years to Shiva, and when He would be happy and ready to grant a wish, they would ask for power.
Once booned, they would start to plunder everyone else. This had happened several times.
But Shiva never changed His giving Nature. Instead, He understood that to digest power was far more difficult than the act that helped acquire it. It was only being in touch with one’s divinity that could enable this spiritual maturity. Shiva was always in touch with His own divinity; He was the most powerful. And so He felt the need to train some beings to digest power.
These chosen ones were the ganas. And that was the difference, which never allowed them to become like Asuras: The training from Shiva about one’s own divinity.

WHAT WAS HIS STORY REALLY?

WHAT WAS HIS STORY REALLY?
“One thing that stood out clearly in the descriptions, was that there was much paradox about Him. The moment anyone thought they understood one aspect of Him, immediately another would come and present itself in contrast. There was always something new about him. And that was the way He was known by most people: As the greatest enigma in the pantheon of the hindu Gods,” continued rishi Suta.
“Truly Gurudeva, Shiva is a great enigma,” said Shaunaka.
“Yes,” Suta continued, “No one was ever sure of His antiquity, or His antecedents; none knew who His parents were, or if He was actually a sibling to the Vedic Gods. Some said He was Brahma’s son, others asserted He was Swayambhu, the Self-created, who, after manifesting Himself, in fact, created Brahma also.”
“So what is the truth, Gurudeva? Who created who?”
“No one could know for sure,” said Suta. “Every search for Him spiraled into a concentricity of a higher realm. Even after hearing about Him endlessly, one would come back to the same mystery.”
“What was His story, really?

TO LOVE, AND TO BE LOVED

TO LOVE, AND TO BE LOVED
"Why do I feel so deeply in love with you, even deeper than my admiration of your spiritual Nature?” Sati asked one day.
“In the beginning was the One.
And he thought, may I be two, may I be many.
To love and to be loved. And so the universe came into being.” replied Shiva.
“Ah, lovely,” said Sati.
“Yes. And an electrifying attraction happens in love.
A spiritual preceptor can also bedazzle you with one look.”
“Yes, for sure,” said Sati.
“Only later, you realise that love and spirituality run on the same current,” Shiva replied with mystic precision that was His paradoxical hallmark.
“Life is still the One, playing with itself, discovering itself.”
“With many, many layers to its own gifts...” Sati thought dreamily. “We are one, we are one indeed,” She whispered softly, and closed her eyes in sweet repose.

HER ENTIRE LIFE BECAME AN OFFERING

HER ENTIRE LIFE BECAME AN OFFERING
Sati loved Sristi Iswara Maharaj. Whenever She approached the forest, She felt Her feet breaking into a run; She could never just walk. In the forest, She thought She clearly heard the leaves rustling into a chorus of invitation, singing ‘Sristi Iswara Maharaj’.
This became a daily ritual: She would not stop running till She reached the enigmatic Shivlinga, Her heart beating and the leaves pulsating with Her run till she arrived at the Sristi Iswara.
Faster each day was the run and the pace of life, faster this divine heartbeat, the mystic crescendo that had become all -encompassing. So fast, that She would almost fall in sweet collapse at the Shivlinga.
And then She would remain there in bliss, for hours on end, day after each passing day. Till the days turned into months and the months into a year. Her entire life itself had become an offering, Her time a rosary count.
And then, one day, Shiva appeared.
