Rampal

Lord Shiva/ Shankar is self-proclaimed (Swayambhu). Therefore, he is also called Shambhu. He does not have parents.
Lord Shiva/ Shankar is from time immemorial and will remain even after the holocaust.
Lord Shiva/ Shankar is immortal-eternal, Mritunjay (who has won over death), Kalinjay (who has won over Kaal), Trikaldarshi (knower of everything in three realms), Supreme power, the creator as well as the destroyer of creation.
Lord Shiva/ Shankar is the embodiment of auspiciousness and welfare.
Lord Shiva/ Shankar is the father of the universe (Jagatpita). The originator of creation and Goddess Parvati is the mother of all living beings (Jagat-janani)
Shiv/ Shankar is Sargun (idol form) as well as Nirgun (Lingam form).
Shankar Ji’s father is Shankar only. Mahadev’s father is Mahadev and no one else
Shiva is formless (Aroop).
The serpent clings to the head and neck of Shankar Ji which symbolises that he is Kaal of Kaal means Mahakaal. He holds Kaal meaning he controls time therefore, others are deities whereas Shankar Ji is Mahadev.
Shiva’s heart is Vishnu and Vishnu’s heart is Shiva therefore, both are one. When people/ devotees got confused, then God Shiva appeared in Harihar, a place in Karnataka in half Vishnu and half Shiva form to end the fight between the two, Shaiva and Vaishnav.
Brahma Ji’s father is God Vishnu. Vishnu Ji’s father is God Shankar. Shiv Ji was not born. He is just a dot.
Vedas and Puranas tell Shankar Ji is Purna Brahm thus, Shiv Purana has been created.
Shiv Ji is ‘Ardhnarishwar’ (half female) so Shakti is from him only. Shiv is from Shakti. Vishnu is in him and Mahesh is in Vishnu.
Shaivagam says that the words Satya and Asatya is came later, Shiva is the first. Where there is truth untruth not there. When truth and untruth are revealed then in the presence of untruth there is an audience of ‘Asadakhya’ and in the presence of truth there is an audience of ‘Sadhakya’. Due to this, the name of God Bhoot Bhavan (Shiva) becomes Sadashiva.
Steadfast Devotees of Shiva worship in Mahakaal abode to Shiv only. So in Kailash abode Shiv Ji is in his original form and is called Sadashiva. This Sadashiva form of Shivaji is the form of the Vishnu element. There is no difference between the Vishnu element and the Shiv element. When the same Sadashiva expands himself inside the universe then he appears in Shiv form. When he takes the function of destruction then he is called Rudra.
God Sadashiva resides in Shivpuri. The formless Shiva is called Sadashiva.
In the world of spirituality, only Shiv is the truth, the rest are merely the names. ‘Satyam Shivam Sundaram’. Shiv is the soul. For Shiv ‘ShivohuM’ is said. It cannot be said ‘ShankarohaM’. Shiva is not a character, Shankar has a character. Shiv does not have a family. Shankar has a family, has a wife and children
Shankar can be the central figure of some Purana or story but Shiva is not. In reality, what we know by the name Shiv Purana is truly the story of Shankar and not of Shiva.
Shankar/ Bholenath has given birth to Vishnu, Brahma and Mahesh (Shankar)
Mangal is the name of Shiv Ji's father
Brahma is the son of God Narayana. Lord Shiva is the son of Brahma. Lord Shiva has emerged from the eyebrow of Brahma Ji. Brahma has emerged from Vishnu’s navel. Vishnu Narayan is self-born.
Shiv cannot be seen. He does not have a body. He is beyond imagination, beyond virtues and sins, beyond religion, and caste. Who does not have Ling is Shiv.
Shankar Ji constantly meditates upon Lord Shiva. So God Shiva is the Jyoti-form. Therefore, it’s called Jyotirlinga. Shankar Ji is corporeal. Shiva is formless. Shankar is the destroyer. Shiva is kind. Shankar is the creation and Shiva is the creator. God Shiva is the creator of Brahma, Vishnu, and Mahesh. The three lines in Shivling and a Jyoti in the middle symbolise Brahma, Vishnu, and Shankar and the dot in the middle symbolises Shiva which is the Jyoti-form.
Shankar is of just one universe. Shiv/ Sadashiva is of infinite universes. Shankar Ji resides within the universe and his original form Sadashiva is beyond all universe, even beyond the formless Almighty. He resides in ‘Parbyom’. There his name is Sadashiva. The same Sadashiva/ Shiv reside in the form of Shankar and Rudra in infinite universes. As there are infinite universes similarly, there are infinite Brahma, Vishnu and Shankar Ji but there is only one Sadashiva.
