Shiva Gita is among the numerous scriptures which teach us about the path to liberation. Every Gita has a central theme around which it revolves, and a unique style of rendering the message. Shiva Gita primarily focuses on preaching about Lord Shiva, who is the essence of all Vedas, and it reveals the path to liberation sailing with the sailor called 'Shiva' So, for a spiritual seeker who doesn't belong to any sect this would be a good source of wisdom.

And for a Shiva devotee or a Shaivite, this Gita would be like a treasure. Therefore, it must be understood clearly that comparison between Gitas is an absurd activity, and everyone is expected to learn from this text and remain blissful in the devotion of the Supreme Personality of Godhead, Lord Shiva.

Shiva Gita belongs to the Ramayana Era of Treta Yuga while Bhagavad Gita belongs to the Mahabharata Era of Dwapara Yuga. Thus, Shiva Gita precedes Bhagavad Gita in time. Also, one thing which is common in Valmiki Ramayana as well as in Shiva Gita is the same Sage Agastya who becomes the preceptor of Rama. In Valmiki Ramayana he preaches Aditya Hrudayam', and in Shiva Gita he preaches "Viraja Diksha".

Whatever may be the reality behind the authenticity of Shiva Gita, it is a text worth learning since these verses are not self-cooked, and they actually exist in upanishads. Therefore, reading this Gita is equal to reading the verses of the upanishads. Hence, Shiva Gita is of great value to mankind. Following a Gita is based on one's personal interest and choice, but reading spirituality always benefits and increases the devotion towards our beloved God.

Between a parent and a 'Guru' or spiritual guide, the authentic scriptures rank the guru higher. Since, the guru gives us the knowledge of the eternal self. Hence, readers are requested to read through the Shiva Gita chapters and extract whatever good things are taught by the lord of the universe, the greatest guru Sri Sada Shiva.
