Namaskaram Swamy
I don’t want to hurt anyone but I have 3 questions which are disturbing me for sometime
1) Are Shiva or Rudra,Brahma,Vishnu interchangeable temporary posts. Can jivatma become them(God) as it is said in some scriptures that if one reads Lalita Sahasranama 16 times every day one can become Mahesvara capable of creation,sustenance and destruction. Even in Shiva Purana, Skanda Purana and Parashura upa purana also it is said that by pleasing Lord Shiva one achieve status/post of Brahma,Vishnu or Indra and references to them being posts are also mentioned in Brahma Vaivarta Purana Krishna Birth 36.28 and also in Mahabharat and Harivamsa. So are they posts and interchangeable or are they persons. I am little confused here since whom are worshipping if they are akin to change ?

2) Why in Rudra Samhita of Shiva Purana and Soot Gita of Shiva Dharmottar Purana tell Lord Vishnu and his consort as externally Satwik and internally Tamasik and Lord Shiva and his consort is internally Satwik and externally Tamasik. Why is it written like this as this is very insulting and demeaning.And how can this be ?

3) Why did Swami Basavanna say that Sri Hari has 10 deaths and while Lord Shiva not any deaths and that Lord Sri Hari is effected by Maya as he has a consort while Lord Shiva is free from Maya. Pls refute these statements

Swami pls clarify my above doubts
