In addition, Kamsale, a traditional Karnataka art form performed by the devotees of God Madheshwara, was offered for the first time in front of Adiyogi.

Talking about the significance of Nandi, Sadhguru said, “Symbolically, outside every Shiva temple, there is a Nandi. Nandi is a symbolism of eternal waiting, because waiting is considered the greatest virtue in Indian culture.” (Image Source: Isha Foundation)

Speaking about the significance of Mahashula( Shiva’s trident), Sadhguru said, “To constantly indicate that though there are three on the surface, deep down everything is one.” (Image Source: Isha Foundation)

Sadhguru also shared about the event on X, saying, “#Shivabharanam- a year after the consecration of Yogeshwara Linga, we are adorning him with the two consecrated instruments through which one can experience his Grace- #Nandi, his Constant companion, a symbol of joyful meditativeness and the #Mahashula to aid a single-minded seeker’s spiritual evolution. May Nandi & Mahasula serve as your access to the Divine. Blessings.” (Image Source: Isha Foundation)
