Shiva and Parvati are prominent deities, representing the divine balance between power and compassion. Shiva, known as the destroyer and transformer, symbolizes the cosmic force of change and asceticism, while Parvati, his consort, is the goddess of fertility, love, and devotion. Together, they embody the ideal of a harmonious union, often seen as the divine parents of Ganesha and Kartikeya. Their relationship signifies the interdependence of male and female energies in the universe, and they are worshipped as a symbol of marital love and unity.
