THE SHIVA LINGAM STONE Shiva is the Hindu god of destruction and rejuvenation. He protects and transforms the universe and is often depicted slaying demons. He is one of the three most important gods, alongside Brahma (the creator) and Vishnu (the preserver). The sect of Shaivism holds that Shiva is the Supreme Being which all other gods are aspects of. Shiva is also known as Adiyogi (the first Yogi), and is regarded as the patron god of yoga, meditation and the arts. Shiva stones are from the sacred Narmada River in India - one of the seven sacred sites in Hinduism. The Shiva Lingam is a sacred symbol in Hinduism representing the energy and essence of the god Shiva, one of the principal deities in the Hindu religion. The word "lingam" is derived from the Sanskrit word "linga," which means "mark" or "sign. "The Shiva Lingam is typically carved into an egg-shaped stone from rocks found in the Narmada riverbed. It symbolizes the cosmic principles of creation and destruction and is often worshipped as a representation of the divine generative power. The shape of the lingam is said to represent the union of the masculine and feminine principles, with the lingam itself symbolizing the male aspect (Shiva), while the yoni (the base upon which the lingam sits) symbolizes the female aspect (Shakti). Devotees of Lord Shiva often perform rituals and prayers, known as puja, to the Shiva Lingam as a means of connecting with the divine and seeking blessings. The worship of the Shiva Lingam is deeply rooted in Hindu tradition and spirituality, and it holds significant symbolism and importance within the religion. It symbolizes Shiva whom Shaivites worship as the supreme god. These stones have been worshipped for at least over 2500 years. The river was formed from the sweat of the god Shiva. In Hindu astrology it’s associated with various planetary energies, representing the power of light behind the sun, moon, planets, and stars. Named after this “God of Gods” in Hinduism, the shiva lingam is a highly sacred stone to devotees. Like the deity, this gem’s meanings tie to divinity, unity, protection, and transformation. You place the Egg-shaped stone in a North direction in your home (Especially to help with money issues) or East but not in other directions. If you pour a liquid on the stone only do so from the North side of the stone especially if you do it under a full moon.
