May God give you all that Kuntidevi hoped and wished for when you were born. The happiness,life,  honor and prosperity of us all depend on you. Return after acquiring new weapons."

To some others even thinking so about their God is a sin. They see him as a handsome yogi with well built body sitting on top of Mount Kailash with his beautiful wife, Ma Parvathi.  Mahadev or Shiva as we know is a God with lots of mysteries, he is cosmic at the same time material. The cosmic form of Mahadev is seen as Shiva who is beyond the Trinity and the material appearance is Lord Rudra ( Shankara ) who is part of the trinity along with Lord Brahma and Lord Vishnu.

It is said that what one sees when one first opens one's eyes on Vishu morning is an indication of what one can expect in the year to come. Thus on Vishu, effort is made to assure one opens one's eyes before an auspicious image—the Vishukkani. While the festival is called "Vishu" only in Kerala, across India festivals sharing the same spirit—such as Ugadhi in Andhra Pradesh and in Karnataka, Gudi Padwa in Maharashtra, Bihu in Assam and Baisakhi in Punjab—are celebrated around the same time of year.
