7 Laws Of Karma by Bhagwan Shiva:
#SanatanaDharma #HarHarMahadevॐ
1. Truth
First law of Shiva Karma is truth. This law asks followers to follow the path of truth, justice & being true to themselves & those around. Remember that dishonesty & false deeds may prevail in small battles, but truth always wins the war.
anatanaDharma #HarHarMahadevॐ
2. Knowledge is God.
A single person cannot possess the knowledge of everything, but everyone may possess the knowledge of something. We should find that seed of knowledge within us, and then do all our karma around it.

Generally, we see Nandi Maharaj sitting directly opposite the main door of the temple where Mahadev's idol or Shivalingam is located. He is not waiting for him to come out and say something. He is in waiting.
Nandi is symbolism of eternal waiting, because waiting is considered
the greatest virtue in Indian culture. One who knows how to simply sit and wait is naturally meditative. He is not expecting anything. He will wait forever.

The fundamental difference between Prayer & Meditation is that. Prayer means you are trying to talk to God. Meditation
means you are willing to just listen to existence, to the ultimate nature of creation. You have nothing to say, you simply listen.
That is the quality of Nandi – he just sits, alert, not sleepy. He is not sitting passively. He is very active, full of alertness, full of life,

Shiva Yajur Mantra, also famous as Karpur Gauram Karunavtaaram is one of the most famous mantras recited by Hindus. It's an ancient Sanskrit Shloka related to #LordShiva and an aarti in Shaivism. It's found in Yajurveda, one of the four canonical texts of Hindu Dharma, the Vedas.
Lord Shiva, one of Trinity Gods, is also known as Shankar, Rudra, Bholenath, Nilkantha, Mahadev. He's also known as the Destroyer or the Transformer according to Hindu Scriptures. He's the bestower of earthly happiness, promoter of good, and auspiciousness.
Lord Shiva is also called Shankara which means doer of good. He takes one beyond the three bodies (Tripura), gross, subtle, and causal that envelope the Jiva or the embodied soul. He is hence the Hara or the remover of all evil and the idol of renunciation.

कौन था पहला कावड़िया .??

किसने किया था सबसे पहले शिव लिंग का जल अभिषेक.?

श्रावण का महीना आते ही हर कोई शिव की भक्ति में झूमने लगता है. इस पावन त्यौहार में पूरे उत्तर भारत और अन्य राज्यो से कावड़िये शिव के पवित्र धामो में जाते है तथा वहां से गंगाजल लाकर शिव का जलाभिषेक करते
है.

कावड़ियो को नंगे पैर बहुत दूर चलकर गंगा जल लाना होता है तथा शर्त यह होती है की कावड़ी, शिव कावड़ को जमीन में नही रखता. इस प्रकार शिव भक्त अनेक कठिनाइयों का समाना करके गंगा जल लाते है तथा उससे शिव का जलाभिषेक करते है.

परन्तु क्या आपने कभी यह सोचा है की आखिर वह कौन पहला
व्यक्ति होगा जो सबसे पहला कावड़ी था तथा जिसने सबसे पहले भगवान शिव का जलाभिषेक कर उनकी कृपा प्राप्त करी व इस परम्परा का आरम्भ हुआ.

एक बार राजा सहस्रबाहु ऋषि जमदग्नि के यहाँ पधारे। ऋषि जमदग्नि ने उनका बहुत अच्छी तरह से आदर सत्कार किया उनकी सेवा में किसी भी तरह की कमी नहीं आने दी .
