(1) Lord Shiva, who is like a lamp that is kindled by the flame of true knowledge that comes with self-realization, resides in a symbolic temple in the heart of self-realized and enlightened ascetics. On Shiva’s head there is an illuminated moon, shining in its radiant best and adorning the Lord’s head like a magnificent ornament. Lord Shiva destroys Kama (sensual pleasures and attractions for the world) like a moth (a metaphor of sensual pleasure) that is killed when it goes near a flame.
