About lord shiva
Lord Shiva, one of the principal deities in Hinduism, is known as the destroyer and transformer within the Trimurti, the Hindu trinity that includes Brahma the creator and Vishnu the preserver. Shiva is often depicted as a meditating yogi, adorned with a crescent moon on his head, the Ganges river flowing from his hair, a trident (trishul), and a serpent around his neck. He is also associated with various symbols such as the third eye, the drum (damaru), and the sacred ash (vibhuti). Shiva represents both the destructive and regenerative aspects of existence, embodying the cycle of creation, preservation, and dissolution. He is revered as the ultimate ascetic, the lord of meditation, and the source of cosmic energy. Shiva is worshipped by millions of devotees worldwide, particularly through rituals, prayers, and meditation practices.
