Lord Shiva's 3 Aspects



Lord Shiva is one of the three deities who govern all living beings in our local universe. He embodies "Tamas guna," while his brothers, Lord Brahma, represent "Rajas guna," and Lord Vishnu embodies "Sattva guna." Shiva is responsible for the dissolution and destruction aspect.


Lord Shiva has a wife, Parvati, and two sons, Lord Kartekaya and Lord Ganesh. Their realm is called "Shivlok or Sivalok."


SadaShiva is a higher aspect of Shiva. SadaShiva's consort is the goddess MahaGayatri, a form of Parvati often known as Manonmani in Agamic texts. Mount Kailash is considered SadaShiva's abode and the gateway from BrahmaJyoti to ParBrahmanda, where an even higher form of ParamShiva abides.


ParamShiva is the highest aspect of Shiva in Shaiva Siddhanta and Kashmir Shaivism. Below him are the primordial Shiva with the Parashakti and SadaShiva with seven Shaktis.


ParamShiva Path is one of the main ParBrahmanda Paths that Souls traverse on their way to the True Divine Home in Sat Lok / Sach Khand.


Kashmiri Shaivism describes how reality, with all of its diversity and fluctuation, is the play of the single principle, ParamShiva. The two aspects of this single reality are inseparably united: Shiva and Shakti. ParamShiva appears as the world through his creative power, Shakti.


In terms of Body Chakras, Lord Shiva resides in the "Heart Lotus" within the body, which has 12 petals. He often remains in meditation.


Father and Mother of Lord Shiva


Lord Shiva (the lowest form of Shiva) has parents. His father is Lord Brahm (Kal Niranjan), and his mother is Goddess Durga.

Lord Shiva's age is 4900 "Divine years" = 15,240,960,000,000,000 earth years.

How Can Lord Shiva Help Us?


Lord Shiva can assist us in various ways. For example, reciting the mantra "Om Namah Shivayah" may help us align with the ParamShiva Path by rising upwards to the higher aspects of Shiva, i.e., SadaShiva and ParamShiva.


ParamShiva Path is one of the main ParBrahmanda Paths that Souls traverse on their way to the True Divine Home.


As we have seen, Lord Shiva (The lowest form of Shiva) is one of the Trimurti and is in a cycle of birth and death and he worships another Supreme God, Sat Purush. The Supreme God Sat Purush is not in the cycle of birth and death, has created everything, and is the Supreme Source of ALL.
