These instances teach us that we should regard the whole world as God made manifest.
The round stone worshiped as the pindi of Shiva also indicates this deep aspect of divine philosophy.
It reminds us that the cosmic expression is round, it has no beginning or end; an atomic orbit is also round; the earth is also globular.
Thus, the philosophy of worshiping the pindi implies worshiping the world; service for global welfare.
It also tells us that we should treat others with the same respect and warmth, as we would like to receive from the world, because we are all different sparks of the same Light.
If we could understand and adopt this philosophy in life, we would no doubt be the true devotees of Shiva, and our power, our knowledge and our potentials would also become grand like those of His true devotees.
