The month of Sawan has just started and devotees across the world are doing everything to please Lord Shiva in the best way possible. From offering milk and bael patra to the shivling to keeping fasts every Monday, people do everything to invite Shiva’s blessing. In order to honour Mahadev, one can also learn from his important life lessons and implement those practices in their life. It's a way of showing your respect to the almighty.
4 Important Life Lessons By Lord Shiva
Here are some powerful life lessons by Lord Shiva that can transform your life:
Embrace Change And Let Go Attachment
The world we live in has a cyclical nature, which means change is inevitable and one must adapt oneself to the transformations life brings to them. Mahadev, also known as the Lord of Destruction, symbolises the recurrent nature of life. His teaching encourages us to embrace change and cut off ties with the attachments that hold us back. By gracefully accepting the changing course of life, we open ourselves to growth and opportunity. Changing ourselves with the times allows us to break old patterns, and make space for new opportunities.

Master Self-Control
A human without any self-control is a ticking time bomb. Shiva’s half-opened eyes symbolise the importance of self-control and introspection, teaching us that mastering self-control can enable you to regulate your thoughts, emotions and actions. It enables us to make conscious choices, avoid impulsive behaviour and maintain balance in our lives.

Embody Fearlessness
The snake wrapped around Lord Shiva’s neck is a representation of fearlessness. It teaches us to conquer our fears and embrace courage in the face of challenges. Embodying fearlessness allows us to step out of our comfort zone, take risks, live authentically and pursue our dreams with unwavering determination.
Live In the Present Moment
Holding on to the past and fearing the future has never done good to anyone. That’s what Lord Shiva’s association with timeliness teaches us. It's important to live in the present and detach from what comes before and after it. By practising mindfulness and being fully present in the moment, one can savour the beauty of life and find inner peace.
