Description
TRANSLATIONLord Śiva, the king of the ghosts, sitting on the back of his bull carrier, travels at this time, accompanied by ghosts who follow him for their welfare.
PURPORT
Lord Śiva, or Rudra, is the king of the ghosts. Ghostly characters worship Lord Śiva to be gradually guided toward a path of self-realization. Māyāvādī philosophers are mostly worshipers of Lord Śiva, and Śrīpāda Śaṅkarācārya is considered to be the incarnation of Lord Śiva for preaching godlessness to the Māyāvādī philosophers. Ghosts are bereft of a physical body because of their grievously sinful acts, such as suicide. The last resort of the ghostly characters in human society is to take shelter of suicide, either material or spiritual. Material suicide causes loss of the physical body, and spiritual suicide causes loss of the individual identity. Māyāvādī philosophers desire to lose their individuality and merge into the impersonal spiritual brahmajyoti existence. Lord Śiva, being very kind to the ghosts, sees that although they are condemned, they get physical bodies. He places them into the wombs of women who indulge in sexual intercourse regardless of the restrictions on time and circumstance. Kaśyapa wanted to impress this fact upon Diti so that she might wait for a while.
[Srimad-Bhagavatam 3.14.24 [link] ]
"Ghosts and mischievous hobgoblins are also the creation of Brahmā; they are not false. All of them are meant for putting the conditioned soul into various miseries. They are understood to be the creation of Brahmā under the direction of the Supreme Lord."
[Srimad-Bhagavatam 3.20.40 [link] ]

This is really beautiful. I especially like the golden light and where it fades into the darker colours.
Unfortunately what brought me here was the fact that this "artist" on Facebook [link] has ripped it off, just doing minor digital edits, and claiming work entirely as his own. I already busted him for stealing my work and he's removed them, but he still keeps things like this up with no credit to you (or the other artists he's heavily "borrowing" from). So I started searching for the original artists to notify them myself. Anyway, I advise you check the rest of his gallery for any of your other works or works you recognise.
Sincerely,
Simon.

so i wish to explain first who are we and who's god
we humans in earth earth is in solar system solar system is in galaxy later in universe (as per abrahamic or as per modern science ) so this universe is nothing but middle world or a similar like core of sphere there are 7 other dimensions or world covered this middle world or madhya loka (where mortals flourish , there are more than 330 other super creatures like humans ) once again this 7 worlds are divided as pathala as 7 neither world athala vithala suthala pathala rasaathala thalathala finally yamaloka end of the the pathala spanda and simliar to this there are 7 heavens so this together makes one bramhanda or universe as per Hinduism and there are millions of universe rotating around around lord vishnu and because of this he's called akhilanda koti brahmanda nayaka ( a truth who's protecting each and everything )

lord shiva is every thing even lord vishnu worship him every time without fail can see carefully in this image as right hand of lord vishnu is kept on lord shiva linga ([link] )
he's not just lord for ghost but he's the father of millions of universe and lord vishnu is the hero or protector of this universe the reason why lord vishnu hold sudarshna is to show that he runs everything even millions of universe (koti brahmandas) that's the reason why lord narayan is called akhilnada koti brahmanda nayaka and the mace is to show that he him self is the the only strength for dharma (righteous) flower or kamala shows that he is the chaitanya (essence for all souls ) panchajanya (conch) means that he's the vibration for all he's om . bramha didn't had the power to create lord shiva granted him he appeared as samyojatha and granted him the power of creation
as lord shiva cant been seen by any one thats the reason why his name is maha kaala (behind time behind form behind everything )

IN Mahabaharath after getting MahaVisnu's Knowledge by Bheesma Peethmaha Yudister asks about Shiva & his thathwa
Bheesm says go to Lord Kirshn he will explain about I cant he says,
Yudistar asks Krishna about Shiva,
Krishn says ..I know Little bit about Him Sage Upamanyu taught me about Shiva, In entire universe Nobody can explain His nirgun or sagun thathwa ,Whatever We get about him or in anyway we explain it is not enough to tell get knowledge all about him ,it still remains as mystery.. When Lord Krishn said like this so what about us, I wonder he remains Bholenath ( innocent one).

You are right! This drawing is transcendental! Lord Shiva is God but at the same time he is not God. In the Brahma-samhita he is said to be another form of Maha-Visnu, and is compared to a yogurt. Yogurt is nothing but milk, yet it is not milk. As yogurt is prepared when milk is mixed with a culture, the form of Lord Siva expands when the Supreme Personality of Godhead is in touch with material nature.
transcendental
n adjective
1 relating to a spiritual realm. Ørelating to or denoting Transcendentalism.
2 (in Kantian philosophy) presupposed in and necessary to experience; a priori.
3 Mathematics (of a quantity or function) not capable of being produced by the algebraical operations of addition, multiplication, and involution, or the inverse operations.
