Emergence of Lord Shiva.

We have all heard of the Hindu trinity – Lord Brahma, Lord Vishnu and Lord Mahesh (Shiva). The trio symbolizes the fundamental truth of birth, sustenance and death which ultimately lead to rebirth and a new journey all over again.

Lord Brahma is also referred to as the creator while Lord Vishnu is the protector and Lord Shiva the destroyer. But what does he destroy? Destruction in this context doesn’t mean the end of life but annihilation of the vices intrinsic to human nature.

When Brahma gives us life, we realize that we exist; Vishnu helps us in leading life by experiencing myriad aspects – good, bad and ugly; while Shiva inspires us to give up all materialistic desires to attain salvation.

But do you know how Shiva came into being?

In this post, we will take you through a legend that describes the emergence of Shiva.

Once, Brahma and Vishnu had a heated argument while debating each other’s supremacy. While they were busy claiming supremacy over one another, a beaming, radiant pillar struck to grab their attention. One of its end extended beyond the horizon and the other dug deep into the earth.

Both Brahma and Vishnu were left clueless on seeing it. The former turned into a goose and the latter transformed into a boar to trace its origin and end.

After spending hours, they failed to trace its starting and ending points.

 Soon, Shiva emerged from the pillar to reveal himself. Thus, the third leg of the trinity came into being to make both Brahma and Vishnu realize that there was a bigger power governing the universe.

Who is the father of Lord Shiva?

The answer is No One, Shiva is eternal, Sanatana, super powerful lord or lords who live on Mount Kailash.

There are no parents of Shiva. There are no stories in the Vedas where his father name is mentioned.

The working of the universal phenomena is based on Trinity which includes Brahma Vishnu Mahesh . Shiva is Maheshwara.

Once upon a sage asked a question to Shiva?

Sage -Bholenath , Who is your father?

Shiva - Brahma.

Then sage asked who is the father of Brahma?

Shiva - Lord Vishnu.

Sage Then who is the father of Lord Vishnu?

Shiva - I am.

Existence of Shiva

The first thing we would like to tell you that Shiva is supreme sentience. The whole universe came into existence by his desire.

Shiva is the limitless void who is filled with extreme energy. It is his energy which is flowing across the universe.

The thing which we can see and which we cannot see all belong to him. It means entire universe is inside him and we are inside him.

When we look towards the sky and count stars in the night. We see twinkling stars and according to modern science, these stars contain the immense amount of energies.

Every substance is made of matter and energy which means our whole universe is made up of matter and energy.

Our universe contains

1. only 2 - 4 % of matter
2. 20- 22% is Dark matter and
3. rest 74% - 78% is Dark energy

Dark matter and Dark energy are completely beyond human consciousness. world Scientists are trying to learn about Dark matter and Dark energy.

Dark matter and Dark energy are responsible for the creation of the entire universe who caused the Big bang.

When we look towards Sanatana Vedic knowledge. Goddess Adishakti is regarded as Dark energy.

Shiva is also the major part of the Dark energy but Shiva is silent means Vairagi whereas another part of Dark energy discharges as Rudrani or goddess Durga .

Both Shiva and Rudrani collectively form Dark energy. Goddess Rudrani is an extreme form of dark energy, the existence of the whole universe depends on Dark energy will.

The energy which cannot be created nor destroyed. Therefore Shiva & Adishakti are one, one supreme lord.

Shiva is immortal, unconquerable, unborn, supreme consciousness. Shiva has limitless energy which is equivalent to Goddess Adishakti.

It is the reason that only Shiva can control the flux of Time and Space dimension. Kaal Chakra or wheel of time is under Shiva's control.

This Dark energy is available in every substance which is present in the form of Shiva Tattva. This Shiva tattva is available everywhere.

In cosmic galaxies, Black holes are the representation of the Shiva Tattva. To start the time Chakra, Shiva requires creating the vacuum in dark energy.

According to Shiva Purana universe has 10 Rudras form of Shiva. These Rudra's are responsible for the cosmic destruction.

One can understand Rudra as the destructor of the galaxies or destruction of the planets.

To start the universe Shiva performed the divine dance which is known as Tandava.

Dancing form of Shiva is Natraj, the circle of the Natraj is the representation of the Time Chakra which produces the Black hole.

The Dancing Shiva

 These black hole originated from the Vibration of the energy Tandava . The fire which is coming out of the circle is the matter.

The distance between the flame represents the Vacuum space. Vishnu emerged from Shiva-Shakti who is responsible for the preservation of the matter.

Lord Vishnu is the base of the entire universe and available in every matter. Brahma emerged from Vishnu's navel part through a Lotus stem.

Brahma created force, rules and policies for the universe. Various forms of the Rudras help in maintaining the balance of the cosmos.

Lord Vishnu is the soul, Brahma is the mind, Shiva is soul maker, AdiShakti is Shiva's energy.
