LARGE LORD SHIVA IDOLS

Lord Shiva is the most significant among all in the supreme deities of the Hindu Pantheon. The supreme Lord is mentioned as the “destroyer” in several sacred Hindu texts, however, it is he who obliterates the adulterations taking shelter in the human psyche. He frees the human body of its lackings and helps them attain moksha.

It is he who is responsible for obliteration because if the 'old' doesn’t perish, the 'new' wouldn't have the option to take birth. In order to maintain the balance of nature around us, Lord Shiva had to come to earth in various avatars. Kurma Purana speaks about 28 Lord Shiva Avatars, yet in Shiva Purana, 19 Avatars of Shiva are spoken about.

Shiva is addressed in a variety of avatars: feeling pacific with his partner Parvati and child Skanda, as the cosmic dancer (Nataraja), as a naked ascetic, as a bum, as a yogi, as a Dalit joined by a dog (Bhairava), and as the androgynous association of Shiva and his consort in one body, half-male and half-female (Ardhanarishvara).

He is both the incredible ascetic and the fertility expert, and he is the expert on both poison and medication, through his control over snakes. As Lord of Cattle (Pashupata), he is the altruistic herder — or, now and again, the coldblooded slaughterer of the "monsters". 

According to Vastu, the best place to place a Shiva statue is the northeast angle of a devotee's home. This is likewise seen as the ideal spot for building a puja room as the spot is known as the 'Ishan corner'. The most proper location for a Shiva Statue is on a special altar. Devotees are advised not to put the statue close to the end of a bed or under anything, similar to a clothesline.
