Re: Suitable Scripture
Namaskar
Read the Upanishads - they depict great philosophical wisdom. Read Shiva Sutras and other such texts which will teach you true nature of Shiva. One other text that I will advise is Ashtavakra Gita, though I have yet not completed it. If you want to read stories of Shiva then go for Shiva Puran or Vayu Puran. Reading stories after stories may be good for starting but ultimately we want to understand Shiva - the absolute consciousness which pervades everything. For that we need to read gems like Upanishads, Yoga Sutra and Shiva Sutra. Read the works and teachings of Sri Abhinavgupt, Sri Ramana mahasrhi, Sri Ramkrishna Paramhansa, Sri Aurobindo and other great gurus.
shantam, shivam, advaitam!
When the light has risen, there is no day, no night, neither existence nor non-existence; Siva alone is there. That is the eternal, the adorable light of Savitri, - and the ancient wisdom proceeded thence (Svetasvatara Upanishad IV-18). :)
