I was not grateful enough for all the good things Gods Shiva and Kima gave me.


If people knew what great things await them, they would spend their lives praying and offering to Gods.


Life consists of sacrifice. "No sacrifice, no victory.". Sacrificing your time and wealth to the Gods gives more prosperity later, but people dont know.


Most people are "give nothing, take all" types, and these types always fail in life.


Ever since I got Brand of Sacrifice symbol necklace from online store, I realized life is indeed exactly that: sacrifice.


People work and sacrifice their time, so that the remaining time they can enjoy better.


But that is people sacrificing their time for work, which is not divine.


If you sacrifice your time and wealth on the path of the Gods, infinitely greater the victory is.


With Gods, all things are possible. Humans are limited, but Gods dont have limits. When you give your wealth and time to Gods, expect a much greater return.


People only think of themselves, but those who think of Gods, Gods think of them.

Lord Shiva, while central to Hindu devotion, is best understood as a mythological construct rather than a real god who walked the Earth. There is no evidence that Shiva existed historically.

While Shiva is a divine deity in Hinduism, many scholars link his origins to a historical, prehistoric figure from the Indus Valley Civilization (pre-Vedic era), evidenced by the "proto-Shiva" Pashupati seal showing yogic postures, suggesting Shiva worship predates organized religion, making him a timeless concept and a revered spiritual "Adiyogi" (first yogi) rather than a single historical person with a birth/death date. 

Evidence for Historical Roots:

  1. Indus Valley Civilization: Archaeological finds, particularly the Pashupati seal from Mohenjo-Daro, depict a horned figure in a yogic pose surrounded by animals, interpreted as a proto-Shiva, indicating worship of similar deities existed around 3000 BCE or earlier.
  2. Pre-Vedic Origins: Shiva's presence in ancient texts suggests he was already a significant deity even before the Vedic period (c. 1500-600 BCE), worshipped by communities outside the emerging Vedic fold. 

Spiritual & Mythological Existence:

  1. Adiyogi: In yogic traditions, Shiva is considered the first yogi, a being who lived in the Himalayas and imparted spiritual knowledge, transcending typical historical timelines.
  2. Eternal Being: He is often described as Adi Anadi(without beginning or end), representing the eternal consciousness, existing beyond linear time, not as a mortal historical figure. 

Conclusion:

Shiva embodies a blend of deep historical roots in ancient Indian culture and a spiritual reality as a timeless, divine force, making him both an ancient concept with archaeological hints and a perpetual divine presence.
