Guest guest Posted April 19, 2004 Report Share Posted April 19, 2004 Shri Shankara says that Shakti is the mother and Shiva is the father, and the relatives of them are the devotees of Shiva and the country is all the three worlds. In Saundaryalaharii, he further explains that only when Shiva is united with Shakti does he have the power to create. In the beginning nothing existed, neither heaven nor earth - or the space in between. The non-being having decided to 'be' became a spirit and said, "Let me become!" He warmed himself and soon he became born fire, then born light. Shiva is the non-created creator of all, he knows all, the pure consciousness, the creator of time, all knowing and all powerful. Shiva is the lord of the soul and nature and also of the three conditions of nature, from him comes transmigration of life and liberation, bondage in time and freedom in eternity. To some he is Shiva the beneficent and to others he is the destroyer. To some he is Shiva the ascetic, wandering the world. For others he is the Great Lord, King of all creations. Shiva is the Lord of Dance. He dances the dance of creation, the dance of destruction and of liberation. Beneath his left foot, ignorence is crushed and from his head springs the life giving water. His are the flames, the moon, the drum and the lotus. His mount is the white bull and the tiger has given its skin to gird his loins. Serpents coil around his limbs and from his right hand springs the promise of release. [From a website] Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
