In plain words
People give Śiva the names ‘the three-eyed God’ and ‘the bearer of the trident’, but none of these is a right description. The principle of consciousness seen in all is itself Śivatva. All of you sitting in this hall now are embodiments of Śiva! All is full of Śiva. To describe such a principle, full of Śiva, is impossible.
Prema itself is Śivatva
In the three worlds and in the three times, Śivatva alone is seen! Śivatva is that which does not change in past, future or present. Many people have long been imagining forms and names of many kinds for this principle and worshipping it. Prema itself is Śivatva. Prema is in all of you. For Prema there is no difference between one's own and another's. But you, mother, father, brother, sister... setting up ties of kinship of this kind, you are narrowing your Prema. All these ties of kinship are only what you imagine; they are not true. God is in each and every one. God Himself has taken on all forms and names. The consciousness of God moves in all beings. Consciousness is in every nerve and in every particle. Some people ask what it is like. It is understood only in experience. What madness it is to search here and there for Śivatva, which pervades all beings everywhere! There, here, wherever you look, the One alone, as the embodiment of the Ātma, fills all places. The power of consciousness moving everywhere is itself the nature of Īśvara.
With the digit of the crescent moon sparkling on the crown, with a lovely mass of matted locks.... Śiva never groomed His hair. He left the hair just as it grew. He did not tend His body either. Once, Sarasvatī, Lakṣmī and Pārvatī, these three, met in one place. When three women gather in one place, three kinds of talk start up. At that time a small quarrel broke out between Lakṣmī and Pārvatī. “Dear Pārvatī! Your husband goes about without tending his body in any way.
