EXPLANATIONS TO THE DIFFERENT FORMS

ready to go down to the earth at any time for any of his devotees and help them out by primarily troubling them to only make them realise that he is the one doing all this all along is what shiva does. shiva being the humanly character and a non material loving and devotee caring person comes around as a sweetie pie to the sages and the demons. he is a sweetie pie to the demons because he was the man who created their race. he was the one who brought them into exisistence, they had always propriated him towards them for their wishes and boons. why was he a sweetie pie of the sages because he showed them how sages had to be. he was the perfect example of the true mind-defeated man, he showed how strong a man could be mentally on keeping his mind in control. he became a hero amongst the masses of sages and lunatics that the true normal people became the devotee of lord vishnu. why did the others leave out shiva and why did the demons and the sages prefer shiva to vishnu? why did this question of shiva or vishnu arise? did shiva or vishnu ever say either of the 2 is greater than one another? is shiva better or is vishnu better? are shaivaas better or vaishnavaas better? krishna calls himself a god and says he s maha vishnu amongst the gods so is he the greater amongst the 2? if yes then why are the so called elites of mind controlled and knowledge attained people going towards lord shiva? but before analysing these let us know the beginning of the puranas. but even before that lets finish the justification. SHANKARA is the form which shows shiva in a penance performing form. he does keep performing penance. all he does is penance. he wants the world to realise the methodology of doing penance. he wants to realise the one who is beyond his authority level. he is in the spree of becoming one with the supreme being. if he is searching the supreme being then how does he know that there is one above him? these many questions when they arise they give rise to true love towards the paramporul. action time friends. the third form the one that comes as a bang with every mistake is RUDRA he comes around when things go haywire. he is the one who does not have any place for mercy. he is the goriest and angriest form of lord shiva. his incarnations are too gory and their fury is too high to be borne by the normal men, if a small part of his body itself is so fearful the true form is too fearful to be borne by the normal man. he comes as heat itself he is fire himself. well lets reserve the suspense of this fierece powerhouse till his entry is vbeing blogged.
having seen the justification in one manner or the other it's time that we get an insight into both shiva purana and rudra purana. this is when one gets to see the real sweetness and power of lord shiva. i shall also brief on the devotion of the 63 nayanmars as and when we proceed with this, let us begin with siru thondar as the first nayanmar.
