Perhaps the best known of all Hindu deities is Shiva and known as a
god of the people. He is also a god of paradox, appearing to live
out two extremely contradictory lives. He is depicted in the
Puranas as wild, recklessly austere and even ferociously
destructive. At the same time we hear of his compassionate and
merciful nature. The stories of this complex god, such as how he
swallowed a pool of poison that threatened to destroy the world,
make for an engaging and mystifying read! Shiva features generous
illustration by both traditional and contemporary Indian artists.
