Shiva, also known as Mahadeva, is one of the main deities in Hinduism. He is one of the supreme beings within Shaivism, which is one of the major traditions within contemporary Hinduism. Shiva is often referred to as "The Destroyer" within the Trimurti, a Hindu trinity that includes Brahma and Vishnu. In Shaivism tradition, Shiva is considered one of the supreme beings who creates, protects, and transforms the universe. In the tradition of Hinduism called Shaktism, the Goddess or Devi is described as one of the supreme beings, yet Shiva is revered along with Vishnu and Brahma. A goddess is stated to be the energy and creative power (Shakti) of each, with Parvati (Sati) being the equal complementary partner of Shiva. He is one of the five equivalent deities in Panchayatana puja of the Smarta tradition of Hinduism. According to the Shaivism sect, the highest form of Ishvar is a formless, limitless, transcendent, and unchanging absolute Brahman. This being is also considered the primal Atman (soul, self) of the universe. There are many both benevolent and fearsome depictions of Shiva. In his benevolent aspects, he is depicted as an omniscient Yogi who lives an ascetic life on Mount Kailash. He is also depicted as a householder with wife Parvati and their two children, Ganesha and Kartikeya. In his fierce aspects, he is often depicted slaying demons. Shiva is also known as Adiyogi Shiva, regarded as the patron god of yoga, meditation, and arts. The iconographical attributes of Shiva include the serpent around his neck, the adorning crescent moon, the holy river Ganga flowing from his matted hair, the third eye on his forehead, the trishula or trident as his weapon, and the damaru drum. He is usually worshipped in the aniconic form of Lingam. Shiva is a pan-Hindu deity, revered widely by Hindus in India, Nepal, and Sri Lanka.
