    I just turned 22, I'm hindu and I DID NOT KNOW ANYTHING ABOUT SHIVA. I know for sure that our ancestors had SOMETHING that kept them united and in harmony. I wish more people saw this today and just absorb how much our culture actually has. We need to find the roots of what it is to be HINDU because it is definitely not politics or money. I pray for humanity in this period before another cycle begins.

    @AditiChitnis Před 21 dnem

    the video was awesome, but i think there are two things that need to be clarified. two stories from this video can be a bit confusing. first, the Ganesha story. ganesha was formed from the herbal grime of clay she used to clean herself while bathing. Ganesha was therefore born from 'tamas guna' or the bad qualities of man. some say shiva was cursed by a sage to kill his own son, some say that shiva knew that mushikasur, a powerful demon who was blessed by brahma that he could only be killed by a being who was twice born , would be wreaking havoc on earth. so shiva for the greater good , slashes ganesha's head, which also symbolizes the destruction of alll the bad qualities ganesha was born out of. Second, long story short, a samudra (sea) manthan (churning) event happened. this was so that the speacial treasures that the Sea god possessed could be procured for the greater good, also lakshmi, the daughter of sea god and vishnu's beloved was to be obtained from this manthan. one of the things that came out of the sea was Halahal (most lethal poison). to protect the poison from destroying life, shiva drank the poison, but parvati stopped the poison from going down shiva's throat by cupping her hands around shiva's neck. thus the blue colour on his throat. many say that this is how snakes became venomous. the naga (snake) species also drank the poison to prevent the poisoning of the ocean.

    Shiva is energy. His tandava is of two types, one which destroyes and one which creates. I.e he is converting some portion of mass of universe into energy (himself) and reconverting it to mass.

    Funny how they clearly state all the names given to satan but it shows lucifet and satsn as serparate. Cause its true lucifer is a fallen angel and satan is wrath aka greeks god of chaos, lord of darkness, the abysss. God clearlys says in the bible that wrath/satan is the ultimate enemy of God. Satsn/wrath is teh enemy of all life , creation, and existence. He is the one he told lucifer to follow his pride and that satan was superior to god. Lucifer was his first corruption.

    this is the roman version of the tale of medusa, prior to roman poets changing the story, she was a monstrous creature just as her sisters with wings that laid with poseidon and bore pegasus in or around 800 BCE, some 700 years later roman poets change the story to her being beautiful and human, cursed by minerva (sometimes athena) for being "violated" (sometimes willing other times not) by neptune in her temple. children of ancient greek would wear a mask of her face, adults would use her face to ward off evil.

    If someone think he is always angry then no, he is not. He is mostly silent and meditates he is very handsome more then you think, just look very scary for evil when he is in the rudra form the rudra form he tries not to out because it can lead to destruction very high. So, he teaches the nature of life let me explain. 1, To be positive, living with friend or even the negative thought people around you but remain positive. Like shiva lives with gods and the negative demons. He still be kind. You can say that all middle benchers always has a shiva. 2) Ignore how long someone keep insult you, don't give any answer to them let them do, you know you are true. But if it gone to physical impact don't stay quiet. Like inchase of Prajapati daksh and gone high after his wife sacrifieses he didn't remain quiet. 3) Always know when to be silent, when to be anger, when to be kind and protect someone. Like Shiva always became angry when its necessary or over. 4) How to control anger throught meditation. As adiyogi. 5) Always live close to nature, when you became you became nothing and everything for nature. This are less, their are more but you should learn this points. It probably help you in your innocent life..
