 So in Kauridas' Meghudam in Aida verse 62 or 61, I can't remember. It says that the snow-capped peaks of Mount Kailash are like Lord Shiva's laughter rolled into a ball. Now this for me was really fascinating because I have never heard of Lord Shiva as the laughing one. You hear of him as Rudra, the howling one or Sanyas in the silent one but I have never come across him as the laughing one but then I discovered that actually one of his names is Atthahas. Atthahas means loud laughter, loud raucous laughter. This really got me excited because this means that there's an entire collection of stories and a philosophy around laughter, around Lord Shiva that we have missed or at least I have missed completely. Now I know that when I started my research on Lord Shiva as Atthahas, I discovered that there is also an Atthahas Devi temple in Bengal. So that means that Atthahas is a title that's used for several deities but for me the excitement or the real fascination is in trying to find the stories around Lord Shiva as the laughing one because as a storyteller of course the stories are fascinating but also I really want to understand what is the philosophy of laughter that is based around the teachings of Lord Shiva. So I don't know very much about it. My research has just started. I have found one story which I'm going to share with you very soon but if you know anything more about it please do drop those stories over here in the comment box. I would love to learn more and I'm sure so would everybody else.
