Shiva is the Vedic deity of destruction- Shiva is a purifying power of destruction- of the material world, ego, and and attachments to form. The destruction makes room for more creation. Shiva has many forms, but most commonly you see images of Shiva sitting cross legged in meditation, for he is the god of the Yogis and sits in a state of liberated samadhi. He sits in total bliss and contentment for he is Bliss personified. Shiva is pure consciousness and bliss without form- free from ego, senses, thoughts or any elements. Another form of Shiva is the Shiva Lingam, which is a representation of the Male creative energy, which sits within a Yoni , which is the female creative force of Shakti (Shiva's Spouse). This symbol can be understood as the mystery of creation as an act of Divine Love. Shiva is your True Self. It is your undying presence that exists beyond you mind and body. The mantra "Om Namah Shivaya" is an ancient mantra that goes back thousands of years. "Om" is the seed mantra for the Ajna chakra ("third eye") and it is also the seed sound of creation. "Namah" means to bow down before. and Shivaya is your True Inner Self. So basically this mantra means "I bow to the Inner Self."
I've created this slideshow of beautiful images from various visionary artists, traditional Indian Shiva images, photography of people who worship Shiva and certain Spiritual teachers who embody Shiva energy. There are also some of my own photographs from Southern India-
Arunachala is the sacred mountain in Tiruvannamalai, Tamil Nadu, India that embodies Shiva energy. The great Self-Realised Ramana Maharshi, known for his teachings of Self Inquiry would meditate upon this mountain. I hope you enjoy.
