Why does he carry a Neptune trident?
Whats with the tiger and leopard skin?
What a snake….around the neck?
What is the ice mountain?
Whats with the ridiculous amounts of beads?
What the heck is hanging from the trident?
What is with the jar?
Question: why is Shiva sitting on top of a tiger rug?
Tiger skin: a tiger skin symbolizes potential energy. Lord Shiva, sitting on or wearing a tiger skin, illustrates the idea that He is the source of the creative energy that remains in potential form during the dissolution state of the universe. Of His own Divine Will, the Lord activates the potential form of the creative energy to project the universe in endless cycles.
