Overview

"In Nondual Shaivism, they have a saying, ""I am Shiva"" (in Sanskrit śivo >ham). In this system Shiva is God, the supreme being, absolute consciousness. He is the eternal, omniscient, omnipotent, and omnibenevolent being, who creates, sustains, and destroys the universe. Moreover, He is not separate from the universe. The universe is the divine vibration (spanda) of his consciousness in the form of his power, Shakti (śakti). Like fire is to flame, so Shiva is to Shakti - they are ultimately one. Shakti is the Goddess, the Great Mother of all. It is through their sexual union that the universe of space, time, and becoming arises. Thus, to declare, ""I am Shiva"" is the same as saying, ""I am God,"" the ultimate conceit."
