Saivism (Siva-Sakti cult) is the religion of yore dating back to prehistoric times of Indian civilization. It is glorified in all Hindu scriptures, Vedas, Upanisads, Puranas, Agamas and the like, which constitute some of the oldest documents of Indian religion. Taking this theme, the author has written 130 paragraphs of glory and adoration of Siva and 30 paragraphs of devotional prayer. These are original, elevating, thoughtful and written in English with Hindi version. Adoration of Sakti is quoted from celebrated ancient texts. These remind man of his unseverable link with divine Father-mother, whose dynamic energy enlightens and motivates human brain center. Prayer gives right understanding, leading to right action, resulting in material, mental and spiritual benefits and guarding against pitfalls in life.
