The Shiva Mahapurana is said to have come from the mouth of Lord Shiva Himself. It is an encyclopedia of various branches of knowledge and ancient esoteric wisdom, handed down through the ages by the grace of the sagas and rishis of this holy land of India. It is arranged in seven Samhitas and written in the Sanskrit language. The rarest pearls are hidden in the depth of the ocean and the most precious gems are embedded in rocks. One has to depend on someone to delve deep into the heart of the ocean or chip off the encasing rocks and expose these treasures to our eyes. Modern man has neither the time nor the knowledge of this ancient language to go through this voluminous book, however, wonderful it may be. Vanamali has condensed and picked out the most perfect of the pearls of this ancient wisdom and given it to us as in a form which is easy to read and simple to understand.

?He looked at me, The conqueror of Love! He turned His glanced on this frail body, He imbued these hands with strength and courage. To write about His divine glories! O Thou Ocean of compassion! Lover of the lowly and despised! Shiva! Saviour of the world! A million prostrations do I make To Thee! The blue-necked Lord of Parvati?.
