Today, when the whole world is living under great difficulties and threatening challenges of one kind or the other, it is all the more important that we take shelter at the feet of the ultimate Savior - God Shiva, and pray that the moon of piety, peace, balance and equanimity on his head, may also inspire patience and serenity in our minds.
We should pray to him to bless us with inner peace, patience, endurance, and courage.
Instead of begging for worldly attainments (as we usually do before any deity), had we prayed for divine inspirations before the infinitely generous Lord Shiva, we would have really acquired real peace and happiness in life, and lived gracefully like a true devotee.
