    About this ebook

    First of all, Sage Shaunak expressed his desire to Sutji about knowing the means, which could help a man in this era of Kali to attainment Lord Shiva, by cleansing all the impurities of his mind and rectifying his inherent demonic tendencies. Sutji then described about Shiv Mahapuran - the supreme of all the puranas, which was narrated by Lord Shiva himself and which was later on retold by Sage Vyas with the permission of Maharshi Sanatkumar, for the benediction of common man. Sutji said, "By understanding the mysteries of Shivmahapuran and singing its praises, a man attains greater virtues than that which could be attained by being charitable or by the performance of all the `yagyas'. Contemplating on the subject matters of Shivmahapuran give auspicious fruits just like a 'Kalpa-taru' (A mythological tree which fulfills all the wishes). Shiv Mahapuran contains twenty-four thousand shlokas and seven.

      The translation is pretty awkward, but there is a lot of wisdom and insight in this ancient text for worshipers of Lord Shiva. This was a living document in India for a very long time, so there are variant texts that don't don't match each other. This is a transition of one variant. There are also parts of the original versions that are missing from all of the surviving texts, including the one from which this translation is rendered. For practical purposes, check with your guru before starting the practices in this text. They might offer suggestions with details not in the text, or they might have other practices that you need to work on first or instead of these.
