June 23, 2017 0
Long time back, there carried on a Brahmin named Devaraja around the local area of Kirantanagara. An exceptionally careless, deceitful and worsen life he lived. No showering and no supplicating was the request of his day. He was indecent by nature. It gave the idea that the sole question of his life was to profit and spend it on bad habit amusements to fulfill his licentious goals. He would wouldn't fret bamboozling others and making mistaken assumptions amongst companions and relatives.

One day, he went to the lake to wash himself for a change and happened to see there a lady of simple uprightness called Shobhavati. Devaraja couldn't avoid the flirtatious signals of the insidious lady. She took away all the cash he had eventually. He totally disregarded the pleadings of his folks and the spouse. To be allowed to do whatever he preferred, he went to live with the malevolent lady in her home. When he had overwhelmed all his cash, the lady showed him out of her home. She had no utilization of him any more.

The Brahmin wandered around and achieved a place called Pratishthanapura. He fell sick there. He thought he would bite the dust. In a close-by Lord Shiva sanctuary he took protect. On the floor he lay not able to move. There was nothing he could do except for tune in to the recitation of the Shiva Puran and religious sermons being conveyed to faithful's. The sermons and recitations finished up on the day he at long last passed on.

The operators of the master of death, Yama properly touched base there to assume responsibility of the spirit of Devraja to take it to hellfire of after world. Be that as it may, the servitor operators of Lord Shiva Intervened to stop them. The specialists of death uncovered the considerable rundown of sins the father Brahmin Devaraja had conferred amid his life time. The operators of Lord Shiva contemplated that what the dead man had done or how he experienced never again mattered, since the most recent couple of days of his life were spent in hearing the recitations of sacred Shiva Puran which had scrubbed him of every one of his wrongdoings. They took the spirit of Devaraja to the Kailasha space of Lord Shiva.

To his astounded operators, Lord Yama clarified, when they communicated their amazement over occurrence, that incredible was the magnificence of Lord Shiva and extraordinary was his effortlessness offered to the individuals who tuned in to the Kathas of Shiva Puran.

Bhairava , kal Bhairava, Mahakal Bhairava Shiva's Destruction Forms.

June 23, 2017 0
Bhairava is the wild appearance of Lord Shiva related with add up to demolition. 

He is ornamented with a scope of bent serpents (as hoops), armlets, anklets, and consecrated string (Yajnopavita). He wears a tiger skin and a custom cook's garment made out of human bones.

Bhairava himself has eight appearances: Kala Bhairava, Asitanga Bhairava, Samhara Bhairava, Ruru Bhairava, Krodha Bhairava, Kapala Bhairava, Rudra Bhirava and Unmatta Bhairava.

Root Of Bhairava –

Once while going around the universe, Lord Brahma achieved the residence Lord Vishnu. He saw Lord Vishnu laying on Adi-Anant-Shesha and being gone to by Garuda and different orderlies.

As Lord Brahma entered, Lord Vishnu did not get up to get him. This demonstration of Lord Vishnu got him furious. Soon, verbal double ejected between them to figure out who is predominant. It turned out to be severe to the point that a fight was battled between them, which proceeded for long time.

Every one of the divinities turned out to be extremely stressed when they saw no indication of fight reaching an end. They chose to go to Lord Shiva, to look for his assistance.

At the point when Lord Shiva come to there, he showed himself as "Analstamba" (Pillar of flame) between them. Ruler Brahma and Lord Vishnu were exceptionally shocked to see the mainstay of flame, which achieved the sky and entered down the Earth.

Master Vishnu changed himself into a pig and went to the "Patal" (Underworld) to locate the base of that 'Mainstay of flame'. Be that as it may, he was unsuccessful in his endeavor and returned. Correspondingly Lord Brahma changed himself into a swan and flew up in the sky to discover its point of confinement. While experiencing the ethereal course he met a shriveled "Ketaki" blossom, who revealed to Lord Brahma that he had been available there since the start of the creation, yet was not able think about the beginning of that 'Mainstay of flame'. Ruler Brahma at that point looked for his assistance to give a false observer before Lord Vishnu, that he (Lord Brahma) had been effective in observing the farthest point of that mainstay of flame. At that point, Lord Brahma revealed to Lord Vishnu that he had seen the farthest point of that Pillar of flame, Ketaki blossom gave a witness. Ruler Vishnu acknowledged the predominance of Lord Brahma.

Master Shiva turned out to be exceptionally irate with Lord Brahma. Flooding with outrage, Lord Shiva opened his third eye and from it showed 'Bhairava'. Tending to him as Kala-Bhairava (Lord of Time-Death) as he shone like the God of Death, Lord Shiva said-"You are called Bhairava in light of the fact that you are of frightening components and are equipped for supporting the universe. You are called Kala-Bhairava, for even Time-Death is startled of you." Lord Shiva requested him to rebuff Lord Brahma, promising him consequently interminable suzerainty over his city of Kashi (Varanasi). In a brief timeframe, Bhairava ripped off Lord Brahma's blameworthy head with the nail of his left thumb. Seeing this, the frightened Lord Vishnu lauded Lord Shiva and devotedly discussed his consecrated songs, followed in this by the contrite Lord Brahma. Shiva-comic-virgin_thumb1

The separated head instantly adhered to Bhairava's hand, where it stayed as the skull, bound to fill in as his unquenchable asking dish. Urging him to respect Lord Vishnu and Lord Brahma, Lord Shiva at that point coordinated Bhairava to wander the world in this poverty stricken condition to offer reparations for the wrongdoing of Brahmahatya (Killing of a Brahman).

Master Shiva said – "Show to the world the custom of reparation for expelling the wrongdoing of Brahmahatya. Ask for donations by falling back on the penitential custom of the skull (kapalavrata)." Creating a lady famous as Brahmahatya, Lord Shiva taught her to persistently take after Bhairava wherever until the point when he achieved the blessed city of Kashi to which she would have no get to.

Watching the Kapalika ritual with skull close by and sought after by the unpleasant Brahmahatya, Bhairava donned unreservedly, giggling, singing and hitting the dance floor with his troll swarm (pramathas). As he went through the Daru timberland, the suggestive self-denying landed at Lord Vishnu's way to look for reclamation just to discover his entrance banished by the watch, Vishvaksena. Skewering the last mentioned and hurling the body of this Brahman on his shoulder, he squeezed before Lord Vishnu with outstretched asking dish. Master Vishnu split his own temple vein however the out-streaming blood as an appropriate offering, yet couldn't fill the skull however it streamed for ages. At the point when Lord Vishnu at that point attempted to prevent Brahmahatya from tormenting Bhairava, the criminal watched that "Homeless people are not inebriated by the contributions they get as by drinking the wine of common respect." Before leaving gladly to ask somewhere else, Bhairava responded by perceiving Lord Vishnu as his principal train and recognized the last's status as"Grantor of aids to every one of the Gods". On touching base at Kashi, the skull fell on the ground, liberating Bhairava from his wrongdoing and Brahmahatya sank into the under world.

Creation and Characters – Shiva Puran

June 23, 2017 0
Enormous Creation/Cosmic Creation

In the wake of showing from Lingam of iridescence and edifying Lord Brahma and Lord Vishnu, Lord Shiva pulled back into his nebulous unendingness. Ruler Brahma looked for direction from Lord Vishnu about creation. Subsequent to preparation Lord Brahma, Lord Vishnu went to live in the external district of space making it his own area.

With the end goal of creation, Lord Brahma conjured Lord Shiva and Lord Vishnu. At that point, he hurled a modest bunch of water which changed into an incredible egg of vast measurement that was an appearance of 24 components. Yet, it was idle. He petitioned sire life and awareness for the astronomical egg. In answer Lord Vishnu emerged there. He changed into a shape having interminable measurements, thousand of heads, eyes and feet. In that frame he went into the egg which wound up noticeably bursting at the seams with that. Ruler Shiva and Lord Vishnu worked there possess spaces inside.

Then Lord Brahma started to make. It started with three configurations and five components, duplicated by their mixes. The eight were the essential instruments of imaginative exercise. The ninth arrangement was kumara, which created men of otherworldly insight, sages, blessed people and soothsayers. Sanaka and Sananda were its items. Ruler Brahma needed them to help him in innovative exercise, however they rationalized and relinquished him. It hurt Lord Brahma.

Prior, in the earth section of creation, obliviousness and negative components (Tamas) were conceived trailed by strong state living and non-living things like mountains, plants, trees and different immovables. Brutes and winged animals came later taken after by people at later stage. This piece of creation monstrously satisfies and fulfilled Lord Brahma. Be that as it may, the selling out of his own child like Kumara items was an extraordinary dissatisfaction. To tragic Lord Brahma, Lord Vishnu instructed to look for the effortlessness with respect to Lord Shiva. Along these lines, Lord Brahma made compensation to satisfy Lord Shiva.

Shows Rudra/Manifests Rudra

As Prophesied before by Lord Shiva, from the focal piece of the brow, simply over the eyes of Lord Brahma, Lord showed Ardhanareeshwara (half man – half lady figure) joined by a large group of awesome gatekeepers and servitors called ganas. Along these lines the Rudra measurement of Lord Shiva emerged. It was the destroyer part of Lord Shiva.

Ardhnarishwar 

In the interim, the making of Lord Brahma was stagnating. No recovery was occurring, the animals were recently maturing without passing on or falling sick. Ruler Shiva had showed 'into equal parts man – half lady' frame to pass on the message that recovery was conceivable just through cooperation between the two genders. He disclosed to Lord Brahma orally also. Master Brahma was encouraged to make animals in sexual orientation arrange and the species who might be liable to birth, demise and different disasters. So prompting and appropriately favoring maker, ruler Rudra vanished.

Formation of Characters 

Crisply prompted and engaged Lord Brahma started to make characters. By blending subjective components of significance, touch, taste, smell and magnificence with five target components of earth, fire, air and water in addition to mixes, measurements, statics, flow and alignment of time ranges, Lord Brahma molded characters. Marichi was made from his eyes, heart delivered Bhrigu, Angirasa was conceived of his head, and so on.

By the beauty of Lord Shiva and motivation given by Lord Rudra, Lord Brahma changed portion of his individual into female life systems. The collaboration between the sex parts created a male called Manu and a female in Shataroopa. the two were matched by maker to bring forth two children, Priyavrata and Uttanpada, and three girls Akooti, Devahooti and Prasooti. They were individually combined with Ruchi, Kardama and Daksha.

Yajna and Dakshina were destined to Akooti. Their matching created twelve children. Devahooti and Prasooti generated extensive broods of girls. Thirteen of them to be specific Lakshmi, Shraddha, Dhriti, Tushti, Pusti, Medha, Kriya, Buddhi, Lajja, Vasuva, Santhi, Siddhi and Kriti were altogether hitched to Dharma. The others; Khyati, Neeti, Sambhuti, Samriti, Preeti, Kshama, Sannuti, Anuroopa, Voorja, Swaha and Suddha were combined with Bhrigu, Dharma, Marichi, Angirasa, Paulastya, Pulaha, Kratu, Atri, Vashistha, Agni and Poorvaja individually. The lucky men were all either sages or divinities. Those sets brought forth awesome numerous splendid characters and lit up the world.

Sixty little girls Daksha had, out of which he offered thirteen to Kashyapa and one "Sati" to Lord Shiva. Others went to different other amazing characters. Kashyapa's mates brought forth agonizes that filled the earth world and populated it in type of trees, plants and creepy crawlies, devas, rakshasas, people, monsters, kinnars, gandharvas, yakshas, men-o-snakes, evil presences, warriors, sages, peers, holymen, lords, rishis, winged animals, mountains and so forth. That is the reason it is stated, the earth is kashyapised world.

Ruler Shiva's associate Sati was appearance of his dormant power (Adi-Shakti) called uma. Sati later resurrected as Goddess Parvati when her Sati shape got immolated. Uma later showed in a few exchange or auxiliary structures. She moved toward becoming Goddess Laxmi, Saraswati and Parvati to couple with Trinity individuals and Goddess kaali to help Lord Rudra.

Her optional indications are : Goddess Durga, Bhagwati, Amba, Chamunda, Jaya, Vijaya, Jayanti, Bhadrakaali, Kameshwari, Kaamada, Mridani and Sarvamangla.

These essential legends continue as before through ages, just including new scenes, indications, lowlifess and sub-legends with the progression of time.

The space of Lord Shiva commands every other area. In his area Supreme Deity lives with his associate Power Latent (Adi-Shakti). Kailasha is his space that survives all fates and stays radiant as ever.

Was Shiva created by Vishnu? Or Vishnu was Created by Lord Shiva?

June 23, 2017 0
The answer depends upon the philosophy you want to believe on
1.>Advaita
2.>Vaishnav
3.>Shaivism or Shaktism
 4.> ...

Shiva birth is only one with no gotra/lineage. He is an standalone entity in any sacred text so, he is ultimate one.

But his status is not equal than to that of Vishnu in eyes of human. Vishnu is responsible one who protects and is with people in disguise.(for instance king is considered as vishnu avatar). On the other hand Shiva has his own lifestyle, and is generally epicted as careless one who gives boon to anyone and can do anything(exotic dances, smoke, eat anything).No rules apply to him but he only respect nature/shakti rules so abide them. Even his lingas are worshipped by vishnu,indra and brahma.(Ref of worship for instance is in a story of deer where 3 pieces of deer horn are placed as lingas in 3 world by each above god.for eg brahma at gokarna.)

so it depends upon how you visualise trinity.
When there was a complete zero - the very beginning of the universe, Lord Vishnu was born from energy. Then from his navel a flower was born and Lord Brahma was sitting on it.

After their birth Lord Brahma introduced himself to lord Vishnu and greeted him and said - "I was pleased to meet someone after so many years of wandering". By saying that he claimed that he was the first to born.

Soon they both started arguing about who is the supreme noble among them. As the argument heated up an enormous black stone appeared and asks them to reach the ultimate end of that stone. Lord Brahma goes upward and lord Vishnu downwards.

They kept going - finally lord Vishnu realized that this stone (or lingam) is infinite like knowledge, it has no end so he returned.

But on the upper side lord Brahma kept going on, in his way he met a flower Ketki. And asked Ketki to claim that he bring Ketki from the end of that lingam. Lord Brahma reached the initial point with Ketki flower in his hand and told his false story to lord Vishnu. Soon a heavy furious voice echoed and Lord Shiva emerge in front. He was angry on Lord Brahma and cursed him that he will never be worshiped.

So according to this story Lord Shiva is most supreme of them all.

Being a vaishnava i would like to share based on whatever i have read.
there are 2 things:
  1. nava vidha bhakti (9 types of devotion)
  2. nava vidha dvesha(hating the lord in 9 ways)
Nava vidha Bhakti:
  1. Shravanam - Listening.
  2. Kirtanam - Singing .
  3. Vishnu Smaranam - Thinking of God day and night .
  4. Pada sevanam - Servitude to the feet of the Guru/God .
  5. Archanam - Adoring the beauty of God .
  6. Vandanam - Worshipping God .
  7. Dasyam - Having the attitude of a servant to His master.
  8. Sakhyam - Having the attitude of a friend toward God.
  9. Atma Nivedhanam - Complete self-surrender toward God.
Nava vidha Dvesha:
  1. Abhedha- believing that jeeva and paramatma are same
2. Nirgunatva - believing that lord does not have any kind of qualities.
3. apoornatva -thinking that lord is incomplete in all perspective
4. jiva-para saamya - thinking that jeeva and paramatma are equal
5. shrestatva -thinking that jeevas are greater than lord
6 . believing in svagata bedha(i.e finding differences in his activities) in lord himself
7. doubting the incarnation of lord
8. hating devotees of lord
9. vishnu shastra ninda- disagree with scriptures which praise lord vishnu’s glory.
Even if we do bhakti of lord along with the dvesha which are mentioned above , then bhakti is of no use.
So if we consider lord vishnu and shiva are equal, then it will come under one of the dvesha mentioned above.
We have to understand basic theory of hinduism for these types of questions. 
The basic theory of Hinduism resides in VEDANTA. Vedanta means the end of Veda. According to Vedanta,
                    There is only one GOD.
                    There is nothing except God in this world.
Maya (the illusion) that does exist itself, creates illusion of many existed.
Whatever we perceive through all senses, is all not true. There is no form of God OR We can say all forms are originated from one GOD. Form of Vishnu, Shiva or any other form of God, form of world, form of many people, anything whichever existed is GOD itself.
Shiva, Vishnu,Jesus or any name you can give. All are same.

Only saivism told like that. God understood by a person in very high end can understand that He can be called by any name.
So  not only Shiva and Vishnu are same , all God is same.
The necessary and sufficient answer is that Vaishnava texte will say that all manifested from Vishnu and Shaiva texts will say that all manifested from Shiva.
Yes lord vishnu created shiva but he is Not equal To him. who told you that shiva is equal to vishnu? even goddess lakshmi is Not equal to him. everyone is post shiva is post, indra is post, brahma is post every god is post but vishnu is not post. except lakshmi and vishnu everyone is post. all the devatas are devotees of vishnu. Hanuman, garuda, ahalya, prahalada,adi shesha, draupadi, Narada, indra, all These devatas are Big devotees of lord vishnu. we are living in earth because of vishnu. in varaha avtar vishnu killed hiranyaksha and he saved The earth. so only vishnu is supreme god No one is equal To him.

Yes in some scriptures vishnu created shiva.in others he did not.they are considered equals because both of them have vast followers who consider them the supreme form

Lord Vishnu Has a Son Named Aiyyappa

June 23, 2017 0
Aiyyappa/Manikantha - Called as Hari hara putra. he was raised by King Rajashekara.

Reason behind his birth 
His First son is Brahma who Born from His(Lord Vishnu’s) Lotus navel. We are all Brahma’s Children and ultimately of Lord Vishnu as Vishnu is Father of Brahma(From whom Rudra/Shiva Appeared).
Lord Krishna Says —
Bg 14.3 — The total material substance, called Brahman, is the source of birth, and it is that Brahman that I impregnate, making possible the births of all living beings, O son of Bharata.
Bg 14.4 — It should be understood that all species of life, O son of Kuntī, are made possible by birth in this material nature, and that I am the seed-giving father.
Note — Some people consider ayappa as a son of harihara(mohini and shiva) but this story has no reference in any of the 18 puranas or itihasa vedic scriptures.
Vishnu does have children according to the Hindu mythology. If you consider his several avatars, the list is longer.
  • Kamadeva, the Indian Cupid is generally considered the son of Vishnu. There are several other theories about Kamadeva's birth ,but most theories point to Vishnu as the Father.
  • Aiyappa is the son of Mohini- the feminine version of Vishnu and Lord Shiva.
  • Lord Rama, the fifth avatar of Vishnu had two twin sons Lava and Kusha.
  • Lord Krishna - an avatar of Vishnu is said to have had 1,61,080 sons from his 16,108 wives.
So indirectly, he is father to many sons/daughters, and even a mother in one peculiar case.

Who is more powerful Shiva or Vishnu?

June 23, 2017 2
To comprehend about who is all the more intense, let us consider,what sacred texts need to say in regards to it. There are two noteworthy episodes specified in the scriptures,where Lord Shiva and Lord Vishnu battled with each other. The person who wins the fight is certainly the most capable. There is no compelling reason to give any individual feeling on this matter. One ought to rather adhere to the specialist of the sacred texts for such topics. I would cite a couple of occurrences. 


The first is specified as takes after:

1)Valmiki ramayana,bala khanda 1.75

तदा तु देवताः सर्वाः पृच्छन्ति स्म पितामहम् || १-७५-१४

शिति कण्ठस्य विष्णोः च बल अबल निरीक्षया |

अभिप्रायम् तु विज्ञाय देवतानाम् पितामहः || १-७५-१५

विरोधम् जनयामास तयोः सत्यवताम् वरः |

""When, every one of the divine beings were asking the Grandparent, Brahma, with respect to who is effective and who is less capable among the blue-throated Shiva and Vishnu... yet, the Grandparent Brahma on gathering the goal of divine beings begun to make difficulty among those two, Shiva and Vishnu, for the Grandparent is the best adherer of honesty, as truth can't be exhibited on gossip prove"

विरोधे तु महत् युद्धम् अभवत् रोम हर्षणम् || १-७५-१६

शिति कण्ठस्य विष्णोः च परस्पर जय एषिणोः |

"Inferable from their hostility at that point happened a furious and hair-raising war among Shiva and Vishnu, as each aimed triumph for himself"

तदा तु जृम्भितम् शैवम् धनुः भीम पराक्रमम् || १-७५-१७

हुम् कारेण महादेवः स्तम्भितो अथ त्रिलोचनः |

"By the "murmur" sound of Vishnu that ruinously overwhelming longbow of Shiva is broken, and the triple-looked at God, Mahadeva, is solidified"

देवैः तदा समागंय स ऋषि सन्घैः स चारणैः || १-७५-१८

याचितौ प्रशमम् तत्र जग्मतुः तौ सुर उत्तमौ |

"At that point divine beings alongside the gatherings of sages and heavenly carana-s have met up and spoke to those two for settlement in the matter of using specialist, and after that those two unrivaled divine beings, Shiva and Vishnu, went into a condition of friendship"

जृम्भितम् तत् धनुः दृष्ट्वा शैवम् विष्णु पराक्रमैः || १-७५-१९

अधिकम् मेनिरे विष्णुम् देवाः स ऋषि गणाः तदा |

"On observing the bow of Shiva rendered idle by the dauntlessness of Vishnu, from that point on the divine beings alongside the arrays of sages considered Vishnu to be all the more effective."

2) Elsewhere, in Valmiki Ramayana,sundara khanda, 5-51-45, it is specified as takes after:

brahmā svayambhūś caturānano vā

rudrastrinetrastripurāntako vā |

indro mahendraḥ suranāyako vā

trātuṃ na śaktā yudhi rāmavadhyam ||

"Neither Lord Brahma, the self-conceived god with four countenances nor Lord Rudra with three eyes and the destroyer of Tripura or Mahendra, the divine force of environment and sky as additionally the master of heavenly would have the capacity to ensure the one to be murdered by Lord Rama in fight."

The second occurrence is specified as takes after:

SB 10.63.39 — O omnipotent one, similarly as the sun, however covered up by a cloud, enlightens the cloud and all other noticeable structures too, so You, albeit covered up by the material qualities, stay self-radiant and hence uncover every one of those qualities, alongside the living elements who have them.

SB 10.63.40 — Their insight baffled by Your māyā, completely joined to youngsters, spouse, home et cetera, people drenched in the sea of material hopelessness once in a while ascend to the surface and in some cases sink down.

SB 10.63.41 — One who has achieved this human type of life as a blessing from God, yet who neglects to control his faculties and respect Your feet, is without a doubt to be felt sorry for, for he is just bamboozling himself.

SB 10.63.42 — That mortal who rejects You — his actual Self, dearmost companion, and Lord — for sense questions, whose nature is the exact inverse, denies nectar and rather devours harm.

SB 10.63.43 — I, Lord Brahmā, alternate demigods and the unadulterated disapproved of sages have all surrendered wholeheartedly unto You, our dearmost Self and Lord.

SB 10.63.44 — Let us love You, the Supreme Lord, to be liberated from material life. You are the maintainer of the universe and the reason for its creation and end. Equipoised and superbly settled, You are simply the genuine companion, and worshippable Lord. You are one without a moment, the safe house of the considerable number of universes and all souls.

SB 10.63.45 — This Bāṇāsura is my dear and reliable adherent, and I have granted him opportunity from fear. Hence, my Lord, please give him Your leniency, similarly as You indicated benevolence to Prahlāda, the ruler of the evil presences.

SB 10.63.46 — The Supreme Lord Krishna stated: My dear Lord Shiva, for your pleasure We should absolutely do what you have asked for of Us. I completely concur with your decision.

One ought to along these lines comprehend that Lord Krishna can't be vanquished by anybody. Infact, one of the name of Lord Vishnu in Vishnu sahasranama is "Ajita". The importance of this name is "One who can't be vanquished by anybody."

Adi Sankaracharya in his Vishnu sahasranama bhasya has given the accompanying clarification to this name:

"na kena programming interface avataresu jita iti ajitah"

"Master can't be vanquished by anybody in any of his avaratas(descent).Hence,he is called as Ajita"

In this manner I trust the uncertainty in regards to who is all the more intense among Lord Shiva and Lord Vishnu is plainly settled with the portrayal of the above episodes.

Vishnu For his most evil sanctuary, finest mosque, and the best church exists inside the souls (the inestimable vitality). On the off chance that influence is your third dimensional measure of 'quality', "rich" and 'notoriety', I fear the "tridev" (Brahma, Vishnu, and Shiva) exist past the third measurement and after the sixth Human Chakra.

When you reach there, you wouldn't look correlation, since there needs no examination of grandiose vitality which lies past the time-space parabola. In the event that you take a paper, overlay it twice, it's three dimensional. On the off chance that collapsed, fourth time, it analyzes into seventh dimensional; and subsequently this collapsing is internal produced with profound power (one ought not look for it external, but rather look for in inward) and thus is relied upon to discover the appropriate response yourself past the sixth Chakra. :)

Entropy of the universe is expanding and clearly we are set out toward times when the universe will achieve its harmony, a condition of greatest entropy. So what might it resemble in such a situation?

Such a situation is clarified by the idea of Heat demise of the universe. Times when the stars have broke down as all their warmth has disseminated. The event of such a situation however is broadly faced off regarding.

Considering heat passing can to be sure happen, envision the circumstances when the sun's power is decreased by ten times! What might life resemble on earth?

From the event of day and night, stream of the waterways, periods of summer and winter and rain, development of the life supporting plants on earth, everything would take a BIG hit!

Do you notice some disorder on our planet as an outcome? Real hit in the creation of assets that support our intricate power hungry setup called 'Present day Civilization' ?

Sounds natural to the kaliyug of Hinduism?

This conviction of Hinduism matches to some degree to the second law of thermodynamics about expanding entropy.

Be that as it may, not to be dampened! Despite the fact that material science to the extent I know, doesn't generally foresee any useful for people after such a warmth passing of universe, according to Hinduism, this cycle of four yugas rehashes interminably, beginning with the primary yuga. So we will make a rebound!

Presently in the event that you view Shiva as sort of an inestimable drive field who is the implementer of the second law of thermodynamics, at that point yes, he is in reality the God of entropy and henceforth not control. Power is your third dimensional measure of the previously mentioned elements.

Analytics and Comparison 
1. Despite the fact that it is not under any condition justificatory to analyze two Gods, especially Lord Shiva and Lord Krishna.

Ruler Shiva is one of the Trimurtis and Lord Krishna is incarnation of Lord Vishnu.

Ruler Shiva is exemplified God whose assignment is Destruction of Transformation. Also, Lord Krishna was destined to execute Kans.

Master Shiva is thought to be made by Brahma as one of the Prajapatis (People who saw formation of world) and Lord Krishna was conceived as human, in Dwapar Yuga.

Master Shiva is in charge of death of anybody and Lord Krishna himself kicked the bucket.

On Lord Shiva you have an entire grantha called Shiva Purana and Lord Krishna is a character in few writing works like Mahabharata and Vishnu Purana.

Both the Gods are from various Time, has diverse status and assumed distinctive parts in Hindu mythology. It is not right to look at these two.

In the event that despite everything you need a correlation, you should look at among Lord Vishnu and Lord Shiva. This could maybe be replied.

We should see the story behind why Brahma is not worshiped. I had learnt it from my granddad, same I confirmed on google. Still there might be mistakes. There are various stories and their renditions accessible yet core of all these is as per the following:

When Lord Brahma and Vishnu went into a contention, that who is more imperative of the two. Their contention prompt clash, to determine that both consented to approach Lord Shiva. When they requested a determination, Lord Shiva, put a test. He transformed himself into a tremendous shape, his body stretched out to from Paatal to Heaven. He solicited, whosoever tries could touch either from my extraordinary (Head or Toe) will be considered. On the off chance that no one can, at that point he ought to be considered as generally critical.

Every one of the three rulers settled upon. Brahma assumed that it is about difficult to do as such. He began looking different choices. He saw a blossom (alluded as Ketaki on different sites) tumbling from the up in the sky. He addressed the blossom and came to know, that bloom is tumbling from the head of Lord Shiva and it took thousands years to reach. Brahma, asked for and persuaded bloom to talk mislead Lord Shiva, that Brahma has come to the head of Shiva and got this blossom from that point as a proof. At that point he came and called Lord Shiva to guarantee his win and bolstered his words with observer of blossom. In any case, Shiva knew about the lie of Brahma and Ketaki blossom. He got irate and reviled Brahma that he won't be ever worshiped by anybody anyplace on the earth. Additionally Lord Shiva reviled the Flower of Ketaki, that as it has talked lie, thusly independent of it's incredible aroma, it won't be utilized for ever.

There is a different story, following this, which says that on aggregate demand of all Gods Lord Shiva lessened the effect of his revile and Brahma is worshiped at just a single place on the earth, i.e. Pushkar. Ruler Shiva likewise lessened his revile for Ketaki blossom is utilized for Fragrance and decoration yet not for love and petitions.

Along these lines Lord Shiva swung to be most vital of the trinity. How could some other god be Greater than him.

Why Is Brahma Not Worshipped?

2. Lord Shiva indeed!
Here is one incidence right from the start of the cosmos.Brahma, for the first time, appeared in the universe. Ignorant of this world,of his own existence. He started meditating for years and years and that went upto a thousand years. That’s when he came across with Vishnu, the perpetuator god. Brahma asked Vishnu, who are you? A benevolent Vishnu replied “I am your father”. Brahma full of his meditation powers, said I am the infinite, timeless. No one is my father. I am the creator of the universe. The argument went on. They finally settled for a dual. Whoever wins is the ultimate God. As soon as the started fighting, appeared a vast, luminescent pillar of energy. From space to inside the earth. And was reverberating AUM. Both of them, In awe of the magnificent phenomena decided to find its start and beginning. It as decided whosoever finds the edge, will be the winner.
They both went on their respective vehicles. Travelled for days, weeks, months and years. Vishnu gave up and came with dull face. ‘Couldn’tfind!” he told to the proudy Brahma.
Brahma, who himself couldnt find the edge, decided to lie. He said ‘ I did so I won, I am the ultimate God.
And then the Pillar opened up and came out the mighty Shiva, the lord of the lords. Timeless.Infinite. Formless. the distructor. The first Yogi. ‘I am your father’ he roared.
He cursed Brahma for lying and said you will never have a temple. And hence lord Brahma doesn’t have any temple, except one in Pushkara.

Note: Somebody fail to identity who is Krishna and who is Mahadeva, because you see two different personalities when you think of them.
Mahadeva is a part of Vishnu. Vishnu is a part of Mahadeva.
On one side Mahadeva presents Vishnu his Sudarshana Chakra as boon while on the other Vishnu protects Mahadeva from Bhasmasura.
As Hanumana, Mahadeva serves Rama; as Sharabheshwara he destroys Narasimha.
As Shankara he embraces Mohini to give birth to Ayyapa Swamy; as Shiva he accompanies Krishna in his Leela.
As Lingeshwara he gives the boon to Vishnu to be worshipped till eternity, as Veerabhadra he defeats Maha Vishnu in the battle of Prajapati Daksha.
Kurma Avatara prays to Mahadeva (Neelakantha) to drink the Kaalakuta Halaahal, while Shiva nearly protects Hayagreeva from the warth of Matsya Avtara.
Shiva is Rameshwara, the lord of Rama. Vishnu is the enigma and bull of the chariot of Tripurantaka, he is the very arrow of Tripurantaka' bow, the Pinaka.
Shiva witness Ram's Swayamvara, dances to the raagas of Ramchandra, becomes the gopika of govinda, the cow of Sri Balaji Venkateshwara.
There is no distinction between then. The Shaivas are Vaishnavas, the Vaishnavas are Shaivas because the lord is HARIHARA.

3. There were disputes many times belonging to this issue even in heaven. I will give two examples rather than Puranas. Chandrasekharendra Saraswathi, the late Kanchi Paramacharya, told this story. He took example for this by taking the word Rameswaram with Sanskrit grammar.
There is no problem with Saivas who think Lord Siva, the Parabrahma. There is no problem even with Vaishnavas who pick up Lord Vishnu as Parabrahma. The problem is only with the people who follow smartha sampradaya. (Smartha is derived from the word Smruthi. A cult formed by Adi Sankaracharya, who had no partiality among Gods.) who can't decide who is main.
Once all Gods went to The Vaikuntha to ask that what was the ‘samaas’ of Rameswaram. (Rama+Eswara is Sandhi, they are asking Vigraha of Samaas). Lord Vishnu said ‘Eswara of Rama’ (Hindi—Ram Kaa Eswar), Shashthi Thathpurusha samaas . I.e., Eswara is greater than Rama. Gods thought Rama is having Anantha(unlimited) Kalyana Guna. Humbleness is one quality of them. So he speaks like that only. So Gods didn't satisfy with this grammar.
They went to Kailasa to ask Lord Siva about this issue. Siva said Eswara is belonged to Rama. (Hindi, Rama ko Eswar ho gaya Bahuvreehi samaas) Now Rama became great. Gods didn't satisfy again. They went to Satyaloka abode to Brahma, to confirm impartially.
They put the same issue before Lord Brahma. Rama is Eswar and Eswar is Rama. (Hindi samaas, Rama hee Eswar Karmadharaya samaas). They satisfied and returned happily repeating the sentence, both are equals in the sense.
I think this is enough. But I am giving another story which had rendered among traditionalists in Thirumala.
Once all Gods gathered in heaven. Purusha Suktham was reciting the qualities of Parabrahmam. Gods were so curious about it. As the Suktha was reading them, every god was thinking that ‘it was my quality’, ‘it was mine’ like that. When Purusha Suktha recited,
“Hrïschathe Lakshmischa Patnoü -”
Then all Gods stopped thinking themselves. It's meaning is like this. “Whose wives are Mahalakshmi and Bhudevi(Hrï).” Gods concluded themselves that the Parabrahmam was Lord Srimannarayana.
Conclusion:—
If you like Ramayana follow the incident of Parasurama in balakanda. This has been given as one answer to your question.
If you like Srimadbhagavatha, read incident of Bañasura in Usha Pariñaya ghatta. This is also one answer to your question. All Puranas were written by one single sage, Vedavyasa Maharshi, an amśa of Vishnu. He felt uneasy after writing all Puranas including Mahabharata. Then Narada Maharshi told to write Bhagavatha for mental piece because Bhakti yoga is ultimate.
Nowadays the ideal book to all the people is Bhagavadgeeta. So follow the chapters 9th, 10th, 11th. You will come to a conclusion.
Precis to Bhagavatha was written by Narayana bhatta thirupada, a very great scholar of Kerala, by the name, “Narayaneeyam”. Just study 10 ślokas of 90th chapter. It is enough.
Some more edits on the demand of readers :
  1. The Purusha Suktha, Sri Suktha, Bhu Suktha, Manyu Suktha, etc… are originated from Vedas. We could not do comments against Vedas. Purusha Suktha is being read by priests in all temples of Lord Siva, Vikshnu, Uma, Lakshmi, Gañapathi, Skandha, Surya. Without these spells, there are no rituals like Abhishekas, Kumbha Prokshanas etc… .
  2. It is not point that which God is great. It is the point whom we should follow. We can understand a little about Adi Shankaracharya but nothing about Siva. We can understand a little about Ramanujacharya but nothing about Vishnu. It is always better to follow one preacher or master to deepen our mind.
  3. I will give better example in this aspect. We learn more subjects for at least 15 years. After then we select one and sharpening our brains we go to extreme in our favourite subject. It is same in the spiritual development side. We come to know about Adi Shankaracharya, Ramanujacharya, Madwacharya, Dayananda Saraswathi, Christ, Mahammod Pravaktha, Guru Nanak etc… . In this age almost every one is an agnostic. We will go through an aacharya depending upon our maturity, taste, experience, influences and circumstances. Only thing is to follow our master, following his instructions, doing service to him and pass the days with Nishkama Karma to get salvation.
  4. We should follow one God for concentration as Rama did prayers to Ranganatha (which is now in Sri Rangam). Srikrishna followed Sampathkumar (which is now in Melkote). His mother and wife prayed the lord who are now in Guruvayur and Udupi. In the oldest, greatest holy city, Varanasi, Lord Siva always spells Ramanama for concentration and teaches every one who comes to Kaśi, with a holy mind. It was written in famous Adhyathma Ramayana. This secret was said by Siva to Uma. “”Aham bhavannama grunan Kruthardo vasaami Kaśyaam anišam Bhavanya mumoorshamañasya vimukthayeham diśami manthram thava Nama Rama.”” He said this one also that “”Ramah Parathma Prakruthe ranadihi, Ananda ekaha Purushoththamohi ||””
  5. Akaśath pathitham thoyam yathha gachchhathi sagaram,
‘Sarva Deva namaskaram Keśavam Prathi gachchhathi’. Bhagavadgita

Comments Answer: 
Thats a tough one, to be honest. But, this is not Batman v/s Superman that you can judge one against the other. They are Gods and both have mystical qualities.
BUT, on a personal note, I think Shiva did more socio-welfare and public welfare activities than Vishnu or any of his incarnation.
Be it drinking poison which would kill the entire world, or him saving Moon from getting burnt, or him saving the cobra around his neck.
Thats a personal opinion anyways.
Of course it is Lord Shiva, Shiva himself is Param Ishwara while Vishnu is an Aditya, a Deva. Generally people become confused about his Supremacy because of Puranas. Every Puran claims it's favourite deity to be supreme. But Puranas are Smritis, they are secondary scriptures. Vedas & Upanishads are primary scriptures or Shrutis. In every major Shruti Lord Shiva or Lord Rudra is portrayed as the Supreme Lord. Just like this verse of Svetasvatara Upanishad
The greatness of our scripture consists in the fact that it does not glorify one deity alone. The Vedas proclaim that the Atman, the Self, must be worshiped, the Atman that denotes all the deities.
Brahadranyaka Upanishad- 4. 5. 6 : "Verily, O Maitreyi, it is the Self that should be perceived, that should be seen, heard and reflected upon. It is the Self that must be known.
Don’t go by Puranas (I am not saying not to read them). They always try to glorify one aspect of Para-Brahman. If you are a Vaishnava, pray to Vishnu as your Atman, if Shaiva, pray to Shiva. If Shakta pray to Maa. Read Puranas to increase your knowledge, to keep your mind indulged in the form of deity you like. Don’t use Puranas to belittle someone else’s faith.
It doesn’t matter who is powerful, Shiva or Vishnu does it? Does it help you in any way? No. It just fulfills the ego of the one proclaiming who is the most powerful, nothing else.
Mayank Pandey
Don't mind my saying so, but this is an ill-informed question. Who is more powerful Shiva or Vishnu? How do you judge power? If it means your destructive capabilities then it means Shiva for He is the destroyer. If it means the power to sustain and preserve life then it is Vishnu.

However consider this: Suppose Shiva were to decide to not destroy, He would be sparing. It is a power akin to that of Vishnu. Likewise if Vishnu were to decide to not sustain then he would be destroying, the same as Shiva. The scope of your question seeks to resolve this point of conflict; however it is not conflict at all, for the moment Vishnu stops nurturing He is no longer Vishnu, He becomes Shiva and the moment Shiva stops destroying He becomes Vishnu, the Sustainer. It is One entity that moves through the various functions of Creation, Sustenance and Destruction.

However I have a way to answer your question. Ask yourself, when do you feel more powerful, while sustaining your performing assets or while disposing of your assets that have outlived their usability. Therein lies the answer for you and it is unique to you. In a way it reflects your constitution vis a vis the Trimurti concept.
Joyjeet Dan
In Hinduism we have different lines of faith and believe. They sometime contradict with each other, but that's the great thing about this religion.
Now about Lord Shiva he is one among the three greats. As per Shiva Purana he was the first god. Then came Lord Brambha and then Lord Vishnu. He is the oldest but we can't give positions like other religion. But who is strongest it's an question which doesn't have any mention anywhere in Hindu text's for that matter or folklore. Yes there are stories in one story you will find Lird Shiva went to Lord Vishnu to intervene and sort an issue and vice versa.

इदम् हि नित्यमेवमुक्तमुत्तमोत्तमं स्तवं
पठन्स्मरन्ब्रुवन्नरो विशुद्धिमेतिसंततम् |
हरे गुरौ सुभक्तिमाशु याति नान्यथा गतिं
विमोहनं हि देहिनां सुशङ्करस्य चिंतनम् ||१४||
OM Namah Shivai.
I don't know why you asked me to answer this, Venugopal Pakala. Hindu scripture is not my forte, and I don't believe in any of it. Besides, you've written a very nice answer yourself. But it's an interesting question, and I get credits, so I'll answer anyways. From what I know and have read from the Gita, Hinduism is essentially a monotheistic religion. The three gods Brahma, Vishnu and Shiva are different aspects of the same god. Kind of analogous to the Christian trinity, or the seven gods of Westeros. In the Gita, Krishna appears before Arjun in the form of Brahma, Vishnu, Shiva, and all the other 33 crore gods. So you can consider them to be equally great.
Ramesh Verma
I am not so knowledgeable person, but as per my understanding, there was a huge positive energy power in the universe (including millions of galaxies galaxies), Infinite, countless, beyond imagination power, that power was nothing but the god or you can say that we given a name GOD to that positive energy.
Now God wanted to create a new universe, for that he divided himself in three (Bramha, Vishnu, Mahesh)and also divided their duties & works like Brmha was creature, Vishnu was palanhaar to take care of the world, and finally distroyer was Mahesh or shiva. Nobody is more powerful and nobody is less. Then they created a new universe with living beings like Humans, animals, trees, earth, moon, Son, planets etc. All are created by God so obviously God is existing in all of them.
Now human being has mind to think, and he started to think and by his own mind. He stared to think that he is a God (which can create anything by his mind, cure it or can destroy it).
Where there is a light there is shadow (darkness) also, so he started to think himself at the top of all, he created 5 evils in his mind that is- kaam, karodh, moh, lobh, and most powerful is Ahankaar. He started to show his power by destroying natural things (Tree, animals, humans, Son, or other planets).
So the Vishnu has responsibility to nourish or take care of all nature, he given some special super power to the good soul human or he created a replica of himself (God) to stop destroying and teach him lesson to follow right path. We may call it Avtaar/ incarnation of GOD in different manner.
God did not divide this nature in name or religion. Its the human who divided it. The basic motto of all dharma/ religion is to save nature/ love the things created by God, Love each other.God has no cast no religion.
But as i said human always use his own mind and ...............
Oxymoron! The coexistence of complete contradiction. One who is driving the universe ensure that truth only wins and on the same time, serves the defeated. That one who is beyond the boundaries of universe lets creation and destruction both propagate.
Shiva, the one who is ‘SANYASI’ lives with his wife Parvati and family (Ganesh and Kartikeya) and remorse to the extent of destruction for entire universe when his wife Sati immolates herself.
And Ram/Krishna, the one who is ‘Grahasth’ leaves his home, wanders in jungles, leaves his wife Sita on some petty words of a washer man. Further, leaves his beloved Radha and re-establishes himself in Dwarika. He didn’t hesitate on not saving Abhimanyu, his own sister’s son and then goes on confronting Bramhastra to save Parikshit in Uttarasa’s womb.
Its not that simple to even understand the scope of their character, forget to compare their strength. These two are epitome of living life and creating their own patterns for good of common people.
Shiv and Vishnu both - extreme eccentricities of the universe, everything else oscillates in-between.
