Lord Shiva

By Anip Kumar

Lord SHIVA which means Nothing but from that nothing emancipates everything. Shiva is that element in everything without which everything is nothing. That's the greatness of Shiva who is the source of everything and who himself has no source. Lord Shiva by his presence creates everything and that everything assimilates in him and finally become nothing. That's the essence of every life. There is Shiva in all of us, we all take birth, and by virtue of our actions we create many things and finally we leave everything and assimilate in Shiva to become nothing. In true sense for a life to attain that Nothingness is everything. Even while a person may have created numerous things by his effort but his true greatness is in shedding all his ego and pride about his creations and thereby denouncing and forgetting what he /she did. It is not his job to

remember that but his creation will speak himself through other mediums. Like Shiva never comes and shouts about his creations, he has no ego, he has denounced everything, he has detached himself from all his creations but all his creations know the root of their existence and all deep down know what a masterpiece creations has been made by that Lord Shiva. In his praise we all sing, dance and celebrate life thereby praising his greatness. Those few who may not do so because of ignorance or may be due to their own self proclaimed intelligence cum ego will also understand this and after may be many more change of lives will finally be able to feel the divine bliss of Shiva and travel on the path to attain that great Nothingness. That whole journey of adding meaning to everything on way to finally detach oneself from that everything to attain the state of Nothingness is "Moksha" and that Moksha is nothing but Shiva.
