Snake around his neck
When we see a photograph of Lord Shiva, the first thing that anyone notices is the snake around his neck. The name of the snake is Vasuki and the three coils depict future, present and past. While the right side represents the action of human in terms of knowledge and wisdom. There are numerous tales associated with Lord Shiva and Vasuki. One of which says, during Samudra Manthan (the churning of the ocean) Shiva drank poison. Not just Shiva, the snakes in water also consumed the poison. Impressed by the snakes’ act, Shiva accepted Vasuki as his companion and since then Vasuki is found around Shiva’s neck. According to another legend, the snakes help Shiva to keep poison around his throat.
