While walking to Besant Nagar, I saw this by the roadside. Just a regular stone, possibly a milestone marker.
Someone had anointed it, and offered worship. With the drawing of the 3 lines, the Stone became Shiva.
Thus are gods born. And thus I learnt that the divine is everywhere, if only we develop the ability to see it.
I am not particularly religious, but instinctively I can sense the truth, that the essence of everything in the universe is the same. Stone, flower, bird, animal, water, land, air....ultimately as we look deeper and deeper into each of these, the differences melt away.
