Why is Shiv Puran Important to Hindus
Shiv Puran is one of the puranas and has important place in Hindu religion. It depicts various avatars that lord Shiva took and roles that he played for the betterment of the society.
Lord Vishnu and Mother Lakshmi are the divine couples responsible for preserving Srishti as we know it. While He belongs to the Trinity that otherwise comprises of Lord Brahma, the srishtikarta, and Lord Shiva, the destroyer; She, as His wife, presides over resources and is the Devi of affluence, a precondition for preservation. They are a beauteous couple as portrayed in this superfine watercolor, exuding in their togetherness a world of bliss. It is Lord Garuda who has hoisted the divine couple upon His magnificent shoulders. He is the vahana (mount) of Lord Vishnu, a ginormous example of divine life, unsurpassed in strength and vigor and martial prowess. In fact, in the Mahabharata, Dronacharya employs a military formation named after the great vulpine creature.
