Shiva ( Siva, lit. the auspicious one) also known as Mahadeva ( lit. the greatest god) is one of the principal deities of Hinduism. He is the Supreme Being within Shaivism, one of the major traditions within contemporary Hinduism. Shiva is known as "The Destroyer" within the Trimurti, the Hindu trinity that includes Brahma and Vishnu. In Shaivism tradition, Shiva is the Supreme being who creates, protects and transforms the universe. In the tradition of Hinduism called Shaktism, the Goddess, or Devi, is described as supreme, yet Shiva is revered along with Vishnu and Brahma. A goddess is stated to be the energy and creative power (Shakti) of each, with Parvati (Sati) the equal complementary partner of Shiva. He is one of the five equivalent deities in Panchayatana puja of the Smarta tradition of Hinduism. According to the Shaivism sect, the highest form of Shiva is formless, limitless, transcendent and unchanging absolute Brahman,[16] and the primal Atman (soul, self) of the universe. There are many both benevolent and fearsome depictions of Shiva. In benevolent aspects, he is depicted as an omniscient Yogi who lives an ascetic life on Mount Kailash[1] as well as a householder with wife Parvati and his two children, Ganesha and Kartikeya. In his fierce aspects, he is often depicted slaying demons. Shiva is also known as Adiyogi Shiva, regarded as the patron god of yoga, meditation and arts. The iconographical attributes of Shiva are the serpent around his neck, the adorning crescent moon, the holy river Ganga flowing from his matted hair, the third eye on his forehead, the trishula or trident, as his weapon, and the damaru drum...

Pakistan, 2nd - 4th Century, Gandhara Region, Statue of Vajrapani, Grey Shale
Located in VILLEFONTAINE, FR
Pakistan / Region of Gandhara 2nd – 4th century AD Representation of Vajrapani shown standing slightly swaying, the athletic body like a Hercules, the bare chest, the waist surrounded by a cloth. It rests barefoot on an ovoid base surmounting a row of lotus petals. The left arm detached from the body hand resting on the thigh, the right arm originally holding a vajra. The head with the long beard and the undulating hair, a long lock falling on the left shoulder. At the crossroads of the civilizations of Iran, the Greek world, India and nomadic civilizations, Gandhara constituted for sixteen centuries an almost obligatory route of passage for the caravans which linked the West to China. A Hellenistic background maintained by the trade in luxury products exported from the Mediterranean basin, mixes with Parthian and Indian influences to the benefit of a Buddhist iconography with great sensitivity. Gray schist...
