The overlapping of names with the Vishnu sahasranama has led Adi Shankara to conclude that Shiva and Vishnu are identical and both equal to monotheistic God , a conclusion that is now a central tenet of Advaitan or Smarta Hinduism . In fact, one of the names of Shiva, recited in the Mahabharata version states, that "He is in form of Vishnu who floats on the waters after the universal dissolution." EXTERNAL LINKS AND REFERENCES
