Whatever the true source is it sure makes us believe in things and keeps our hopes alive and keeps us moving forward.

For a lot of people Lord Shiva is that source of energy, a lot of people tend to believe that Shiva is the energy and the Shiva himself is the calmness. The Hindu Epics have various stories of Shiva being soft and granting every wish of the devotee. The tales have this that whatever is asked from Lord Shiva whole heartedly he grants the wish.
