Shiva, widely revered as Mahadeva ("Great God"), is a prominent figure in Hinduism. He embodies one of the fundamental manifestations of Divinity. As the Supreme Deity within Shaivism, a major denomination in modern Hinduism, Shiva holds an esteemed position. Among the five primary forms of God in the Smarta tradition, he assumes the role of "the Destroyer" or "the Transformer." In the Trimurti, the sacred Trinity of Hinduism's core aspects, Shiva is recognized as one of the three primary manifestations of the divine.
