Shiva, is revered as the destroyer and transformer within the Holy Trinity, which also includes Brahma the creator and Vishnu the preserver.
Known for his ascetic lifestyle, Shiva resides in the Himalayas, often depicted in deep meditation or dancing the cosmic dance of creation and destruction, known as the Tandava.
He embodies a complex balance of opposites—serene yet fierce, benevolent yet wrathful—symbolizing the cyclical nature of the universe.
Adorned with a serpent around his neck, the crescent moon on his head, and the sacred river Ganga flowing from his hair, Shiva holds deep spiritual significance for millions, representing both the power of destruction and the promise of renewal.
Shiva has always inspired me as a boundless force of energy — a presence beyond form, flowing through the universe like a silent storm. In his deep, unshakable meditation, he holds the stillness that calms both mind and body, like moonlight over restless waters. His essence teaches mastery not through suppression, but through awareness — guiding emotions like a river follows its course: wild, yet always returning to source. In Shiva’s limitless being, we see not just a god, but a mirror of what we can become when we awaken the divine within.
Showcasing some of the shots of Shiva in his meditative form of stillness and calmness, to be relished by you and feel the energy within you.
Hope you like the small dose of divine energy that flows through spirituality and divinity especially in the month of Shiva, the Monsoons!!!
