Shiva destroys ego, attachment, and the things a person is holding on to long after they have stopped serving them. He is the reason Sawan is observed, the reason Mahashivratri is stayed awake for, and the reason millions of people find calm in the sound of a single syllable.\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp dir=\"ltr\"\u003e\u003cspan\u003eThe Shiv Chalisa is forty verses to that force.
