Om Namah Shivaya

I was spending some time with me and listening to meditational videos in hopes of putting my restless mind at ease.I played the mantra of Om Namah Shivaya accidentally but it made me quite relaxed so I listened through.

I think I've found peace today.

''It means  "I bow to Shiva." Shiva is the supreme reality, the inner Self. It  is the name given to consciousness that dwells in all. Shiva is the name of your true identity- your self. 

According to Hindu mythology there are three Gods who run this creation. The Brahma - who creates the universe, the Vishnu - who preserves the Universe and the Shiva- who in the end destroys the universe. Among the three deities, Shiva, though considered as destroyer, also symbolize the  - the inner self which remains intact even after everything ends. ''

I am not Hindu,Buddhist or Taoist.What I do is adopt certain spiritual aspects from various practices and try to apply it to my life.If it works for you,why not utilize it? I don't have a religion,I just want to be one with myself and the universe.
