Who's Shiva ?
 
 Shiva is wor - shipped in the abstract form of the Shiva Lin - ga, anthropologically he is usually depicted as a being immersed in deep meditation or, as we see in Cigars of the Pharaoh (p.50), manifest - ing as the cosmic dancer Nataraja dancing the dance of creation, preservation and dis - solution – the Tandava.SShiva means ‘auspicious one’ in Sanskrit. Two of the major traditions within the pantheon of Hinduism hold different per - spectives on Shiva: the Shaiva tradition con - siders Shiva as the Supreme God; the Smarta tradition conceives of Shiva as one of five primary forms of God.
