O culto a Shiva está enraizado na tradição de [[Special:MyLanguage/bhakti yoga|bhakti yoga]], a senda de união com Deus através do amor. O devoto escolhe uma divindade ou encarnação específica de Deus a quem ele oferece toda a sua devoção. Ele ama esse aspecto de Deus mais do que qualquer coisa ou qualquer outra pessoa. | |||
Singing [[Special:MyLanguage/bhajan|bhajan]]s, with voice and heart upraised in sublime praise to Shiva, is one of the ways devotees move closer to their Lord. They also pray to him, emulate him, have faith in his grace and compassion, and venerate his image. In bhakti yoga, the deity represents the [[Special:MyLanguage/Atman|Atman]]—the indwelling God, the imperishable, undecaying core of man. As the disciple adores his chosen ideal, he not only unfolds his own latent divinity but he also becomes one with his beloved. The goal of the lovers of Shiva is to gain ''shivatva'', the nature of Shiva. | Singing [[Special:MyLanguage/bhajan|bhajan]]s, with voice and heart upraised in sublime praise to Shiva, is one of the ways devotees move closer to their Lord.
