At the Brahmins, the god Civa is designated by 1008 different names. He is the god of sacrifices and the magicians. He is especially destructive, what does not prevent that he is also the doctor and the parent; because if he destroys, it is to reproduce. He is accompanied by Cakti, the goddess of the evil and the destruction.
During the passion of Our-Lord, 1008 persons mocked of Him on the cross.
The numerical value of the Hebrew word RHP, meaning to go up or to glide, gives 1008.
