Sri Shiva Lila. The Play of the divine in the form of Lord Shivar

Viac o knihe

Shiva, the most ancient and complex deity of the Hindu pantheon, has been portrayed in many contrasting lights: destroyer and benefactor, ascetic and householder, wild demon slayer and calm yogi atop Mount Kailash. Drawing from the Hindu sacred text the Shiva Mahapurana, Vanamali selects the essential stories of Shiva, both those from his dark wild side and those from his benevolent peaceful side.
