Roots dug in past..

      History, past, mythology, remains found beneath the surface, rocks, stones each and everything have some roots in our epics. One such incident that shook me all over again after reading an epic.
        It wasn't just a random story or a war that took place in Kurukshetra but it is something that digs the roots in past.
One evening, I started focusing on spirituality. I thought let's meditate and leave this world for atleast one mili seconds. My aim wasn't to achieve the extreme level of spirituality but instead I told myself that if even for a second I felt that I have meditated and my body left my soul during this process I will believe in the supernatural power that controls the world.
       I don't remember exactly what happened while meditating but it reminded me of the most apex personality or power "Shiva".
        So, I took up a task of actually finding a way to meditate. I went through many websites and finally discovered that what I was searching on Web engines was all available in one epic 'SHIV PURAN'.
         I barely started reading the first chapter and I came across the birth story of Lord Shiva. I got curious and started reading where I read that Shiva was once cursed by the sages. He was invited for having food with them. Instead of presenting himself in a sophisticated way, he presented himself in a complete naked gesture. This took place when those sages went to take a shower and female sages were standing to welcome Shiva. Seeing such unethical behaviour sages cursed him. This curse led to break off his phallus or what we call as Penis to break off from his body. Shiva being the creator, his phallus kept tearing the earth apart. Straight from Kedarnath to Rameshwaram. That is when Shakti took control over the situation and saved this world.
     After reading it I understood how hard it is to know each and every fact about something. Although there are many mysterious stories behind birth of Lord Shiva.
        Hence,once again I sat in a meditating position but this time while meditating a thought struck my mind. I realised the western part of India has almost all the Jyotirlingas and the eastern part has all the places where the Shakti or Goddess is worshipped. I don't know if this theory is true or ever been discovered but it definitely puts me in a question.
