Shiv

by Ashok Sharma

अनुकूलता सुख देती है और प्रतिकूलता दुख। एक ही वस्तु किसी को सुख देती है और किसी को दुख, किन्तु सुन्दरता वस्तु-निष्ठ है। जो कल्याणकारी है, वही सुन्दर है। वह किसी के दुख का कारण नहीं हो सकती यद्यपि वह कष्ट-साध्य हो सकती है। तप, कष्ट-साध्य है किन्तु कल्याणकारी है अत: सुन्दर है। शिवत्व का अर्थ है, प्रगति या कल्याण। अशिक्षा से शिक्षा की ओर, दरिद्रता से समृद्धि की ओर, निस्तेज से तेजस्विता की ओर प्रगति है। यह शिव है और सुन्दर है। ईश्वरत्व को साकार करने के प्रयास में भारतीय मनीषा ने शिव की अवधारणा प्रस्तुत की। यह पराभौतिक ज्ञान की ओर बढ़ने का एक प्रयास था। यह कहती है, शिव का हेतु ही सत्य है। शिवत्व ,सत्य की ओर ले चलता है। यत सत्यं तत् शिवम, यत शिवम तत् सुन्दरम्। शिव सदैव सुखद रूप से शीतल है, शान्त है, सुन&

I have always been a true devotee of Lord Shiva and read many things on his life, and tried to follow him in all the ways.
.
This book is written to know some untold stories of Lord Shiva. Mythological read and that too in Hindi which I can't miss. The book is written in simple way where admirers of Lord Shiva will never keep this book aside until they completes it. Because, reading this book is like pizza, the more you eat
( the more you read ), the more you want.
A perfect read it was.

The author, Ashok Sharma has used simple comprehensive language to narrate the book. The vocabulary, though in Hindi, is very easy to grab for the readers. Considering the complexity of the theme of the book, the author has done a commendable job.

Hindu mythology narrated in Hindi, the book is appreciable. It talks about Shiv Shakti and I consider Lord Shiva as the soul source of power in this universe. Which is nicely depicted in the book.

Must read for mythology lovers. One gets to learn a lot of facts from the book which we're unknown to, otherwise.

I picked up this book by its title. The way the language has been used it is so amazingly written that you would not be able to stop yourself from finishing it. Shiv's character has been aptly envisioned and portrayed. So is Sati's character. The way the story ends relating mythology with Quantam physics is great. Most of the facts were new to me. After reading this book I now feel that God may be known by many names however what exists in this universe is just Energy which we call "Life".

पुस्तक में शिव को एक मनुष्य की तरह चित्रित किया है ,शिव और राम का युग भी एकसाथ दिखाया है | शिव किसी ईश्वर की बातें करते है ,जो वो नहीं है | कहानी भी बदल दी गई है ,सती आत्मदाह नहीं करती और ऐसी ही और भी कुछ बातें |
परन्तु अगर बस कहानी की तरह पढ़े, बिना उसे शिव और तथ्य से जोड़े तो कहानी सुन्दर और भावनात्मक है|
