Who am I

 

 

“Who I am?” is the question that opens the door to know the almighty God?

There are fewer people in the world who really want to know the answer to “who I am?”

You must understand that you are not a body. This body is a tool, an instrument, or hardware only.

The body has no energy in itself at all.

This is the soul or supreme soul which energizes the body and enlightens the body.

All we know that when the subtle body leaves the physical body, the body begins to decay and ultimately destroyed.

 

What is Shiva

This is the soul that makes you healthy and keeps you free from all the decays.

In fact “I” means your “AHANKAR” or Ego. This ego is energy. The ego is energized through the soul or supreme soul.

This “I” is also a very strong energy. It is a flux of energy that makes your ego or “AHANKAR”.

This is your ego that forces you to think that this physical body is your true entity.

When you have a sense of this physical body, this “I” (ego or Ahankar) is your body or you, but when you realize that you are not a body but a soul you immediately awaken in the eternal God and understand that you are a soul, the energy of almighty God.

 

 

Knowing you are a soul and not a body, removes all your doubts about the God, world, and yourself.

Everything becomes crystal clear before you. God starts to reflects everywhere in nature and in you too as shown in the image below:

This soul or supreme soul is Shiva nothing else.

 

What is Shiva and What is Shivlinga

Shiva is eternal Bhrama or lord. Shiva is your soul. Shiva is the supreme soul. Shiva is eternal cosmic energy. Shiva is eternal.

There is no end and beginning of Shiva. Only transformations are there.

This Bhramand is Shiva. It doesn’t matter whether you call God as Jesus, Allah, Nanak, Sai or anything else.

All names are the names of almighty God or Lord Shiva.

Shiva linga is a symbolic representation of root (“Mool”) of the universe (Bhramanda), Shiva, God, or supreme energy.

Shiva linga is also from the beginning and remains forever. Shiv linga can change their size, shape, and color but will remain forever.

Why we give water Shivlingam

We offer water to a root of a plant to give life to the plant, to get fruit from the plant, and to keep the plant green and healthy.

The plant may die, become lifeless or become yellow if you stop to give water to the plant. The plant will not give you fruits if you will not offer water to the root of the plant.

 

 

“Shiva Linga is a root of this whole universe (“Bhramanda”) and so, you too.”                                                  -Mamta Rajshree

Similarly, Shiva linga is a root (“Mool”) of this whole universe (“Bhramanda”), God, or supreme energy. Shiva linga is a physical symbol of God. Shiva linga is a Yantra of Shiva.
