Lord Shiva Indian Trinity of Gods

Query: Lord Shiva... God of Forgiveness?


Vijay Kumar:
Do not continue living in a cocoon of your making! Ignorance is never a bliss! In modern times we need to keep pace with life... we need to understand the true purport of the sacred scriptures... the teachings of the enlightened beings... the doctrine of Bhagavad Gita given to mankind by Lord Krishna in Mahabharata!

If in the times of Lord Krishna... the war was fought with bows and arrows... does it mean we fight our neighbors today with bows and arrows! No sacred Scripture can ever be understood literally! We need dive deep into the bottomless pit of Wisdom to gather the hidden pearls of wisdom... the sayings that can never be understood otherwise.

There has never been one by the name of Shiva in the history of mankind. Lord Shiva in Hinduism is an attribute... an attribute that signifies the power of absolute control... the power of death in the Cosmos! Ultimately it is Lord Shiva that controls the balance in the cosmic system! Apart from lord Shiva there has never been anyone like lord Vishnu or Brahma!

Brahma in Hinduism is the creative attribute of God Almighty! Brahma is considered the Creator of the Cosmos... the Creator of all human beings nay living beings! Vishnu is the preserver... the maintainer of the system! Lord Shiva (aka Mahesh) is that attribute of God Almighty that makes the system go round! Shiva is part of Hindu Trinity of Gods.

We pray to Brahma, Vishnu and Mahesh not out of fear but for the wonderful creation... the mighty Cosmos created by God Almighty! Every human being nay every living being owes its existence to God Almighty! Human being... the highest manifest stage in the cosmic life cycle makes it a practice to pay obeisance to God Almighty as and when possible!

God Almighty is not the form of human beings... it is pure celestial power much beyond the comprehension of most human beings! It is only when one gains enlightenment does the complete picture of the Cosmos and God Almighty emerges before one! Gaining enlightenment (kaivalya jnana) and finally salvation (moksha) is the end goal of life... the ultimate goal of life for all human beings!

Everything in the cosmic system is governed by the doctrine of karma. As we sow so shall we reap... nothing less or more so says the law of karma! Every soul atman is governed by the absolute law of karma in every manifestation... in every form of life! To think of Lord Shiva as a human being... to think that God Almighty plays active role in his creation is a misnomer.

God Almighty always acts as a Dhrista (onlooker)! This aspect has been made explicitly clear in the sacred Bhagavad Gita of Hinduism... the doctrine given to mankind by Sri Krishna! Whether we believe it or not is the sole prerogative of every individual human being! To believe or not to believe is the biggest question that haunts most human beings!

Every single narrative... every ritual is simply praising an attribute of God Almighty! The goal of every human being always remains reaching the end of the journey... the 8.4 millionth manifestation when human beings gain enlightenment and finally salvation. Reaching the stage of enlightenment means reaching the end of spiritual pursuit!

Having reached the Mount Everest of spiritual pursuit... nowhere else to go further... the liberated soul finally gains entry into the abode of God... into the kingdom of God (aka Vaikuntha in Hinduism).

In our day-to-day life if we commit a sin we always get many chances of repealing the same! In the house of God there is ample space for forgiveness at every stage of life! The whole cosmic system acts like a massive computer system! Whatever be our karma... accordingly shall be the result! If the residual balance of karma of present manifestation demands our taking birth in the house of a laborer in next manifestation... we cannot manifest the form of a prince!

We simply cannot expect mangoes to grow on a guava tree! Life in the cosmic system is not complex. It is only when human beings dominated by their bloated ego, the wanton desires and greed for materialistic riches mix it with their spiritual yearnings... the whole process appears complex! In present-day it almost seems impossible to reach the status of Mahavira, Gautama Buddha, Jesus Christ or Prophet Mohammed!

In the spiritual remain traveling the spiritual path... the uncharted territory is difficult but not impossible! Whatever be our sin we always get chances to repent provided we do it sincerely and seriously! Veda Vyasa... The writer of the sacred Bhagavad Gita was a criminal of the highest order! He committed unpardonable sins beyond count!

The preaching of a saint made him change overnight! He realized his fault. He finally became a spiritual saint of the highest order... the writer of the script of the sacred Bhagavad Gita! Veda Vyasa did not produce the sacred Bhagavad Gita but only wrote the script that was in circulation through the word of mouth... Since the time of Vedas!

May God bless all!

Essay by: Vijay Kumar "Atma Jnani" ... The Man who Realized God in 1993!

A to Z of Lord Shiva explained in words everyone can easily understand and fathom. More on indian trinity of gods can be found at Hindu Gods ... Vijay Kumar - 5 June 2010.

 Full text of query: Shiva does not forgive... there is no backtracking in the domain of Shiva. If we indulge... we shall repent in the end. John F. Kennedy let loose his sensual side... he paid dearly by loosing his life (His association with marilyn monroe was not liked by many).

Everything what you mentioned is correct but this above mentioned words are not True He is the Lord of forgiveness Not like other gods who reap the fruits only if you pray and punish if you don't follow Shiva is kindness he seeks no medium to be followed and rituals to be followed as soon he enters your heart all your peeda and dadhra is gone he blesses those who just visit his temple but if your are devoted to him in any form he blesses there is a story that a King was his devotee he daily slept with prostitutes but used to worship lord Shiva once in a week on Monday that particular day he forgot and slept with the pros women later he realized that he should have gone to temple his searched the women's entire but there was not a single Shiva statues so he closed his eyes and imaged lord Shiva in a direction where the pros women was sleeping his offered flowers to her and lord Shiva accepted it it a irrelevant place and situation and the flowers thrown on the sleeping women fell on lords feet this made Parvathi very angry when she questioned lord Shiva he said who ever comes to me in any form or situation but devotional offers prayers i shall accept it No Hindu gods are witness for such kind of love and
understanding.
