Who is Shiva: Man, Myth, or Divine? - Shiva refers to both “that which is not,” and Adiyogi because in many ways they are synonymous. Explore the stories and legends that surround this most prominent figure of Indian spiritual traditions.
Meaning of Shiva:
When we say “Shiva,” there are two fundamental aspects that we are referring to. The word “Shiva” means literally, “that which is not.”
Shiva is Nothingness
Why Shiva Has a Blue Throat
Sadhguru explains the symbol of Shiva being depicted with a blue throat, revealing how a certain dimension of the energy body called the vishuddhi chakra is located at the pit of the throat and is responsible for filtering out harmful influences.
Aum Namah Shivaya
Aum Namah Shivaya is a mantra that purifies the system and helps one become meditative. Sadhguru looks at what it means to chant this mantra and speaks about why it is not to be chanted as Om Namah Shivaya but as Aum Namah Shivaya.
Shiva’s Third Eye, Crescent Moon, Trishul, Snake and Nandi the Bull
Sadhguru explains all the key symbols that have traditionally adorned Shiva the Adiyogi. Learn all about the mighty trident or trishul, the crescent moon in his matted locks, the snake that wraps around his blue throat and the third eye on his forehead.
Shiva Purana
The Shiva Purana is an ancient text that includes many aspects of fundamental science in it and is a powerful tool to transcend limitations. Presented in the form of stories and parables, this way of expressing scientific truths has been a hallmark of the yogic culture.
Parvati
The wedding between Shiva and Parvati was a grand affair, and the very elite of society were present in all their rich finery and splendor. Then entered the groom, Shiva – dreadlocked, matted hair, ash smeared from head to toe, wearing the fresh skin of an elephant and dripping with blood.
Kailash
Revered by many religions and seen as the most sacred site for pilgrimage in the Yogic culture, it is said in the tradition that Shiva resides in Mount Kailash. Sadhguru explains that this is because he stored everything that he knew in this mountain.
Nataraja – Shiva as the Cosmic Dancer
Shiva is also known as Nataraja – the cosmic dancer or the Lord of the dance. This is a dialectical way of expressing that the cosmos is in a dance and the dance is guided by a certain intelligence. Shiva as Nataraja represents the exuberance of creation.
Shiva Linga
In Sadhguru’s words, “linga” means the form. We are calling it the form because when the un-manifest began to manifest itself, or in other words when creation began to happen, the first form that it took was that of an ellipsoid.
