Why Lord Shiva is Associated with the Number 3...?

Image
  In Hindu philosophy , numbers are not merely mathematical symbols; they carry deep spiritual and cosmic significance. Among these, the number 3 holds a special place. Lord Shiva , one of the most profound and complex deities in Hinduism, is deeply associated with this sacred number. The connection is not accidental—it reflects the structure of the universe, the nature of consciousness, and the rhythm of existence itself. Shiva and the Divine Trinity Shiva forms part of the Trimurti , the Hindu trinity that represents the three fundamental processes of the cosmos: Brahma – Creation Vishnu – Preservation Shiva – Destruction (Transformation) In this context, destruction does not signify negativity. It represents transformation—the necessary end that allows new beginnings. The cycle of creation, preservation, and dissolution is the eternal law of nature, and Shiva governs its transformative phase. The Symbolism of the Third Eye One of the most powerful symbols of Shiva is his thir...

Happy Living Attitude

We think that we have taken birth on so and so day and date. But hold one minute – you existed on so and so date for your parents and your relatives, not for the world, even not for you. Even today, you do not exist in this world for those people who do not know you, and those people do not exist for you whom you do not know.   When you sleep this world cease to exist for you, even you do not exist for you. Nothing exists for you when you sleep, not your post, position, status, richness, poverty, nothing. When you open your eyes and get the consciousness, you feel you and this world exist.   Anything exists on this planet for you because of your conscious, the moment you lose your consciousness, everything ceases to exist for you and you do not accumulate the memory of those moments.   In this entire world only those things exist which you have heard, read, experienced consciously, rest does not exist.   When you hear any story whether that exist in reality o...

Be Aware Of Your Mortality

Image
“The blessed life must be lived to the fullest before it is engulfed by the whirl of time.” Why did Swami Vivekananda , Albert Einstein, Thomas Alva Edison, Sir Isaac Newton, Leonardo da Vinci, Adi Shankracharya, Ramanujam etc. could accomplish many great achievements in their short lives and others could not …? It is because they were constantly aware of their mortality. Life is the sum total of each and every moment. They knew the importance of it and decided to spend their each and every moment in thinking and doing something great rather than dissipating their energy and time on something insignificant irrelevant. Our life is not different than what we think and do at any point in time. If we think and act like great people, our life is going to take the shape like them, if not, we are going to be the same frustrated person year after year. A realistic plan cannot be delineated without associating a realistic deadline against each item. The same is true ab...

From Kankar to Shankar

Image
The same stone (Kankar)can be used for the different purposes. The value of the stone depends how that has been carved and where that has been placed. The internal composition of the stones is the same. But, one sort of stone is worshipped and others not. The same stone is used to make the temple, the same stone is used to make the stair of the temple, and the same stone is used to make the image of the gods or goddesses. The stone which is used to make the image of the gods and goddesses is placed at the most sanctified place of the temple before whom the visitors bow down and revere . Every piece of the stone contains a beautiful image in it. And that image comes to the surface and becomes visible to all when that is properly carved. Not only one sort of image, any image can be carved from a piece of stone. It depends - which image one wants to carve from that stone. If the same stone is used to carve a beautiful image of gods and goddesses, it is placed in the sac...

Brahma, Vishnu And Mahesh In Our Daily Life

Image
Lord Brahma as a creator of the universe created an elegant universe where everything runs very precisely, even a little digression in placing of the celestial body and their speeds can cause the complete annihilation of the universe. He must be appreciated for his great creative power.   But, only creating a grand universe is not sufficient, it must be maintained prudentially to sustain its spender. Lord Brahma does not maintain it. He is just a creator. Maintenance requires a different skill and temperament. For this work, Lord Vishnu was chosen.   He has the right kind of skill and temperament to work with different kind of people and maintain the universe. Lord Vishnu`s eyes are always wide open, it is the indication of his being perpetually vigilant. If anything happens anywhere, he immediately takes right action in order to continue the sustainability. At the end of every Kalpa, the created universe   is dissolved. For that, Lord Shiva is chosen. He...
