Guest guest Posted April 26, 2007 Report Share Posted April 26, 2007 Om Namah Sivaya God Siva is all and in all, one without a second, the Supreme Being and only Absolute Reality. He is Pati, our Lord, immanent and transcendent. To create, preserve, destroy, conceal and reveal are His five powers. God Siva is a one being, yet we understand Him in three perfections: Absolute Reality, Pure Consciousness and Primal Soul. As Absolute Reality, Siva is unmanifest, unchanging and transcendent, the Self God, timeless, formless and spaceless. As Pure Consciousness, Siva is the manifest primal substance, pure love and light flowing through all form, existing everywhere in time and space as infinite intelligence and power. As Primal Soul, Siva is the five-fold manifestation: Brahma, the creator; Vishnu, the preserver; Rudra, the destroyer; Maheshvara, the veiling Lord, and Sadasiva, the revealer. He is our personal Lord,source of all three worlds. Our divine father-mother protects, nurtures and guides us, veiling Truth as we evolve, revealing it when we are mature enough to receive God's bountiful grace. God Siva is all and in all, great beyond our conception, a sacred mystery that can be known in direct communion. Yea, when Siva is known, all is known. The Vedas state: "That part of Him which is characterized by tamas is called Rudra. That part of Him which belongs to rajas is Brahma. That part of Him which belongs to sattva is Vishnu."

Guest guest Posted January 16, 2009 Report Share Posted January 16, 2009 Haribol! What we have here is a list of terms. A way, a modal, to describe this reality. I like these definitions. I meditate on these and try to apply this to my self-realization. I seek moksha. However, I know of groups who use these same terms and they mean different (close, but different) meanings. Is this a point of conflict? I hope, suganth bahu, that you have not said " Absolute truth, perfect!!! " to mean that my interpretation of truth is the only correct way!!! For who can truly know how each mind interacts with Lord Shiva?

Guest guest Posted January 16, 2009 Report Share Posted January 16, 2009 YAUM NAMAH SHIVAYAY Truth doesn’t mean only correct way, its also mean accepted fact. No one knows how each mind interact with LORD SHIVA. It’s depends on individual how they show love and affection towards LORD SHIVA and other souls. May be it’s look like a list of terms, but we have to look beyond that, the purpose of this list is make easier every one to understand the power of lord SHIVA. May be every individual interpretation may differ. But the target is one. LORD SHIVA is the formless god. When we describing him with form mean for human being to understand what we are talking about. For an example when we see LORD SHIVA, we see a snake around his neck. It doesn’t mean he is walking around with a snake. The message is, we the human have the kundalini power in us, Wake that up. When we see him as a NATARAJ we can see he is holding a drum on upper right hand, and fire on upper left hand, the message is this universe born with AUM sound and it will be end by fire. Ect, ect..... You said: What we have here is a list of terms. A way, a modal, to describethis reality. I like these definitions. I meditate on these and try toapply this to my self-realization. I seek moksha. If you look at them as just a definition, it’s hard to achieve anything from the meditation. It’s remind me that every time I go to temples I watch the way of others pray to god. Most of the people pray by lips and their hearts and minds are set to some ware else. There is no point of praying to god like that. In fact we are adding more sin to our self. When we pray to god we should pray from bottom of our heart, then take it to our mind, further more we should integrate our soul with god. That’s what I call a prayer. The purpose of the meditation to unite our soul with the supreme soul, to achieve that we have to still our mind, mean no thoughts at all. It’s not a good idea to apply any models while we meditate. And certainly it’s not going to help you for self realization. Some one to realize them self first we should understand what’s going around us. All the events and time are interconnected. Then we have to ask serious questions about our self. Such as who am I? Where did I come from? What am I doing in this planet? Where am I heading? What’s going to happen after I died? Ect ect… then we have to liberate our self from worldly attachment. Moksha is not a highest reality. It’s higher than our planet earth. But we our self have to merge with god is the highest of all.
