Brahmasri Chaganti Koteswara Rao gari - Lord Siva


About Lord Shiva

Shiva (Sanskrit: Auspicious One) is one of the main deities of Hinduism that is worshipped as the paramount lord by the Shaivaite sects of India.

In Hinduism, Lord Shiva is regarded as the representation of the Supreme Being. He is known as the third element in the Hindu Trinity (Trimurti), the other two members being Lord Brahma - the creator and Lord Vishnu - the protector. Shiva is the destructive form of the Almighty. As the cycle of destruction and recreation is always in a circle, Shiva’s primary responsibility is maintaining the life cycle. Scholars say, as the Mahakaal, Shiva destroys and dissolves everything into nothingness but as Shankara, he also reproduces that which has been destroyed and dissolved. His symbol of Lingam or the phallus represents this reproductive power.

Lord Shiva is also considered to be the most unique of all Hindu gods and also the God of all. A great ascetic, Shiva is the only godhead who is forever in deep meditation, totally absorbed in contemplation in His abode, Kailaasa Mountain in the great Himalaya. Lord Shiva is also said to be inseparable from Shakti - Parvati the daughter of Himavaan - Haimavati. There is no Shiva without Shakti and no Shakti without Shiva, the two are one - or the absolute state of being.

జాతక కధలు - కొన్దెగదు

బ్రహ్మదత్తుడు కాశీరాజ్యాన్ని పరిపాలించే కాలంలో బోధిసత్వుడు మగధదేశంలోని ఒక గ్రామంలో మాఘుడనే క్షత్రియ కుమారు డుగా జన్మించాడు.ఆ గ్రామంలో యూభై గడప ఉండేది. యూభై ఇళ్ళ మగవాళ్ళూ రచ్చపట్టులో సమావేశమవుతూండేవారు. ఈ గ్రామస్థులు నీతినియమాలు లేనివాళ్ళు. దొంగతనాలూ, హత్యలూ చేసి, లంచాలతో గ్రామాధికార్ల నోరు మూస్తూండే వాళ్ళు. ఈ రచ్చపట్టుకు ఆలనాపాలనా లేదు.
చెత్తా చెదారమూ ఉండేది. ఇది చూసి మాఘుడు తన కోసమని కొద్ది మేర శుభ్రం చేసుకు న్నాడు. కాని ఆ ప్రదేశాన్ని మిగిలిన వారిలో ఎవరో కాజేసి స్వంతం చేసుకున్నారు. మాఘుడు మరొక జాగా శుభ్రం చేసుకు న్నాడు. దాన్ని కూడా ఇంకెవరో ఆక్రమించు కున్నారు. ఈ విధంగా మాఘుడు ఓపికతో రచ్చ పట్టంతా శుభ్రం చేశాడు. ఆ తరవాత అక్కడ నీడగా ఉండేటందుకు ఒక పందిరి వేశాడు. ఇందువల్ల గ్రామస్థులందరికీ చాలా సుఖం చేకూరింది.
మాఘుడి ప్రవర్తన యూభై ఇళ్ళ మగవారినీ ఆకర్షించింది. వారంతా అతని నాయకత్వం ఆమోదించి గ్రామసేవలో నిమగ్నులయ్యూరు. అందరూ కలిసి సమావేశాలకోసం ఒక పెద్ద మందిరం నిర్మించి, తాగేటందుకు నీరు కూడా ఏర్పాటు చేశారు. అది మొదలు వారు మాఘుడి వద్ద పంచ శీలాలు నేర్చుకుని సద్వర్తనులై మెలగ సాగారు.
