Solution lies in assuming identicality of the two on the basis of this suggestion, not in accepting the one and rejecting the other. It is not unlikely that there was a close affinity between the extant Vayupurana and the proto-Vayaviya or that the extant Vayupurana is a recension of the proto-Vayaviya and thus a part of Sivapurana itself. On the strength of this evidence it cannot be unreasonable to suppose that there was a proto-Sivapurana and a proto-Vayaviya. We have the testimony of Sivapurana itself that the original Sivapurana consisting of one hundred thousand slokas was abridged into twentyfour thousand slokas. “We know that Sivapurana is divided into seven Samhitas, one of which is the Vayaviya. Generally the eighteenth is listed as the Shiva Purana, though a few list the Vayu Purana in its place. Most Puranic scholars agree upon the authenticity of the seventeen Mahapuranas other than the Shiv Puran. The five Samhias have been dropped however over the course of time and the Shiva Purana we have with us today consists of twenty-four thousand slokas, said to have been abridged by Sage Vyasa. All twelve Samhitas together comprised one hundred thousand Slokas. The five additional ones were Vainayaka, Matr, Rudraikadasa, Sahasrakoti and Dharma. It is called Vayaviya, because although it is Suta who narrates it in the Naimisha forest, it was originally narrated by Vayu.Īs per Vayaviya, the original Shiv Puran had twelve Samhitas as against the current seven. The Vayaviya has two parts, the Purvabhaga and Uttarabhaga.

The Rudrasamhhita itself is divided into five sections: Creation, the story of Sati, the story of Parvati, the birth and adventures of Kumara and Shiva’s battles. The text of the Shiv Puran as it exists today is arranged into seven Samhitas: Vidyavara, Rudra, Satarudra, Kotirudra, Uma, Kailasa and Vayaviya. This is quite similar to the many-worlds hypothesis being put forward by some quantum physicists today. In one such for example, it is said that there is one Shiva and Parvati pair looking after one universe, and there are many such pairs in creation. Several stories in the purana deal with how Shiva creates the universe. Fritjof Capra for instance, narrates in his book “The Tao of Physics”, how similar in structure the statue of Nataraja (Shiva as the Lord of Dance) is to the traces left behind by subatomic particles in a Bubble Chamber. The Shiv Puran is today a matter of interest for many physicist-philosophers, since many of the stories bear an uncanny resemblance to the descriptions given by modern cosmology regarding the creation and birth of the universe. This is a common theme in all Indian mythology, an alludes to the impossibility of encompassing knowledge of all creation within a book, or any number of books for that matter. The Shiv Puran as we have it today is said to be only a fragment of what originally existed. The Shiv Puran of course praises the glory and greatness of Shiva, describes the ritual and philosophical principles of Shiva worship, embodies descriptions, sermons and dissertations on the greatness of his divinity, recounts his emblems, attributes, exploits and incarnations, narrates legends and dwells upon the merit of installing and consecrating the linga. The Mahapuranas or “Great Puranas” are the more important ones, while the Upapuranas or “sub-puranas” are the minor ones are often neglected in study. Each class consists of eighteen puranas, bringing the total number of puranas to thirty-six.

The Puranas are of two kinds: the Mahapuranas and the Upapuranas.
