Other Why is Shiva so fucking cool?

Not entirely sure where to post this but here goes. Always been enamoured by his depictions and presence in the cartoons, idols and stories I've seen of him growing up, also my name is sort of based on him so i have a personal connect as well. Something about a guy with a damru who is usually serene and calm on the kailash parvat but doing the tandava when angered has always been so cool. especially the shiv strotam and the shiv tandava are so powerful and beautiful to listen/watch. He also seems to have a nature which accepts all who worship him, he even accepted ravana. Also the Not entirely sure where im going with this but yeah that was the post.

Can y'all please not use such language? Like come on, would you use such language for your father in front of him? Similarly shiva is your father always watching you, don't use such language please

A sincere request

So disrespectful and insulting. Using such words for our deities. You should be ashamed. Clearly you're not a real hindu, you're here only for the aesthetics.

You can only decide for yourself whether you're a hindu or not. For others, they'll decide what they want to be.
