Tales of Shiva: The Mighty Lord of Kailasa (Amar Chitra Katha) Indian Comic Book (Epics and Mythology)

Shiva is the third deity in the Hindu triad.

He ought to be the most terrible one because he presides over destruction, whereas Brahma and Vishnu are associated with creation and preservation respectively.

Yet Shiva is as much loved by mortals as Vishnu is.

He inspires fear in the hearts of the wicked, love and affection in the hearts and the pious.

From his snowy abode on Mount Kailasa Lord Shiva travelled far and wide, answering the prayers of his devotees.

But he was often in disguise to ensure that his favors went only to the deserving and so it was that he battled with the dauntless Pandava Arjuna, cast his net into the seas as he mingled with humble fisher folk and emerged from the sand to kick aside even the mighty Yama, god of death.
