About Lord Shiva
Lord Shiva, the destroyer and transformer in the Hindu trinity (Trimurti), is one of the most revered deities in Hinduism. Known as Mahadeva, the Great God, Shiva represents the cosmic functions of creation, preservation, and destruction.
Shiva temples are considered highly sacred, especially the 12 Jyotirlingas scattered across India. Devotees worship Shiva for moksha (liberation), removal of obstacles, and spiritual enlightenment.
