'''Shiva''' | '''Shiva''' es una de las deidades más populares en la India. Junto con [[Special:MyLanguage/Brahma|Brahma]] y [[Special:MyLanguage/Vishnu|Vishnú]], forma parte de la triada hindú, la trimurti. Brahma, Vishnú y Shiva se considran como tres manifestaciones del Ser Supremo Único. Son el "tres en uno", correspondientes a la Trinidad occidental de Padre, Hijo y Espíritu Santo. Brahma personifica el aspecto creador de Dios, Vishnú el preservador y protector, y Shiva el destructor o disolvente. Shiva encarna todos estos aspectos para los hindúes que lo eligen como su deidad. | ||
Shiva’s devotees revere him as the supreme Reality, the total Godhead. They see him as the Guru of all gurus, the destroyer of worldliness, ignorance, evil and evildoers, hatred and disease. He bestows wisdom and long life, and he embodies renunciation and compassion. | Shiva’s devotees revere him as the supreme Reality, the total Godhead.
