Akshayaguna Mahadev Lord Shiva Idol Murti in Brass

Lord Shiva sitting in blessing mode on lion’s skin. Shiva means auspiciousness. Shiva is the destroyer, the most powerful god and one of the godheads in the Hindu Trinity. Shiva is the dissolving force in life. But Shiva dissolves in order to create, since death is the medium for rebirth into a new life. Shiva is one of the most fascinating gods.

Shiva means, graciousness, auspiciousness, Mangalam. He is all graciousness, ever auspicious, Sarva Mangalam. That is the reason why the epithet, Sri, which indicates these qualities, is not added to the name Siva, Sankara, lsvara etc. It is added to the number of Avatars, for they have taken on perishable bodies for a specific purpose. They have to be distinguished from other humans, by the epithet, Siva is eternally gracious, auspicious, mangala and so the epithet is superfluous. Siva is adored as the teacher of teachers, Dakshinamurti. The form of Siva is itself a great lesson in tolerance and forbearance.
