When we look at our lives when do we feel supremely free? It is when we do not cling to unnecessary things. Sometimes we get overly attached to people, places or things. and we become dependent on something unnecessarily that takes us away from true happiness and we accept something less for our satisfaction and we continue to have the ups and downs in life. Do we have any unnecessary addictions, or overattachment to our own thoughts, expectations and judgments, fears, anxiety, sorrow or grief etc?
Shiva is without any support. All of us have to depend on some support or other, but Shiva does not depend on any outer factor. He is supremely free and effulgent., He is always sparkling and shining from within.
