Shiva Bhikshatana — the Divine Mendicant

Bhikshatana depicts Shiva as a wandering ascetic beggar, a form he is said to have taken as penance after severing one of Brahma’s heads — wandering with that skull as his begging bowl until his sin was absolved. This lesser-known form emphasizes humility and penance.

Why this image
A distinctive, narrative-rich form less commonly seen than Shiva’s more typical iconography, suited to devotees interested in his fuller mythology.
