The 5 elements, mind sixth, intellect seventh and ego eighth constitute the apara prakriti of Bhagavan. This is stated in Bhagavad Gita. Lord Shiva is described as the one who destroys samsara- which is made up of these 8 'things'. By the way, is Brahmaji shown sitting on an eight-petaled lotus ? Who is the author of lingashtakam ? regards,Shailendra Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
