Shiva's
Gaṇas
The Divine Family of Lord Shiva
Not ghosts to be feared.
Not monsters to be hated.
They are guardians, companions, protectors, musicians, sages and servants of Dharma.
He asks, “Will you walk with Dharma?”
Who are Shiva's Gaṇas?
They are the divine assembly who walk with Shiva.
They come from every realm, every element, every path.
Different in form, united in devotion.
Every being who walks in Dharma has a place in Shiva's family.

- Some are yakṣas.
- Some are siddhas.
- Some are spirits.
- Some guard mountains.
- Some protect forests.
- Some sing before Shiva.
- Some protect devotees.
Together, they form Shiva's eternal family.

- When the heart is pure
- When one serves selflessly
- When one protects life

- When one loves all beings
When a soul lives like this, that soul already walks among Shiva's Gaṇas.
