Seven thousand years ago, a magnificent person was born during great struggles. His name was Shiva, and he was the first superhero. As an animal lover, he encouraged people to be kind to wildlife. He traveled everywhere on his faithful yak, teaching people about music, dance, yoga, meditation and more. To Shiva, all belonged to one big family. In that era, children did not know their fathers. Shiva changed all that with his marriage to Parvati. Their marriage showed others how to be a caringand responsible family. Further, Shiva treated all good people like his sons and daughters, generously showering love on them. Anyone who sincerely approached him for help, he gave aid. Shiva’s character and superpowers were extraordinary. Children who discover Shiva and his contributions will learn they can become great themselves. By doing good, practicing yoga and meditation, and helping others, children can be superheroes like Shiva.
