Significance of Shivling
Shivling, also spelt shivalinga, is the state of eternity, the symbolic idol of Lord Shiva.
Lord Shiva is represented in the phallus form. The shivling symbolizes the primeval energy
of the Creator. At the end of all creation, during the great deluge, all the
different aspects
of God are believed to find a resting place in the shivling.
The shivling is also
a representation
of the infinite Cosmic Column of fire.
In Sanskrit, Linga means a 'mark' or a symbol,
which points to an inference.
Thus the Shiva Linga is a symbol of Lord Shiva - a mark that reminds
of the
Omnipotent Lord, which is formless.Shiva Linga speaks to the devotee
in the
unmistakable language of silence, and it is only the outward symbol
of the formless being, Lord Shiva,
who is the undying soul seated in the chambers of your heart,
who is your in-dweller,
your innermost self or 'Atman,' and who is identical with
the supreme 'Brahman.'
There is a mysterious or indescribable power or 'Shakti' in the Linga,
to induce concentration of the mind, and helps focus one's attention.
That is why the ancient sages and seers of India prescribed Linga
to be installed in the temples of Lord Shiva.
Significance of Lord Shiva
Lord Shiva means "The Auspicious One", also known as Parameshwara
(the Supreme God), Mahadeva,Mahesh ("Great God") or Bholenath
("Simple Lord"), is a popular Hindu deity and considered as
the Supreme God within Shaivism, one of the three most influential denominations in Hinduism.] Shiva is regarded as one of the primary forms of God, such as one of the five primary forms of God in the Smarta tradition and
"the Destroyer" or
"the Transformer" among the Trimurti,
the Hindu Trinity of the primary
aspects of the divine. Shiva is also regarded as the patron god of yoga and arts.
The most recognizable iconographical attributes
of the god are a third eye
on his forehead, a snake around his neck, the crescent moon adorning and the river Ganga flowing from his matted hair,
the trishulaas his weapon and the damaru as his instrument.
Lord Shiva is the Lord of mercy and compassion.
He protects devotees from
evil forces such as lust, greed, and anger. He grants boons, bestows grace and
awakens wisdom in His devotees. The symbolism discussed below includes major symbols that are common to all pictures and images of Shiva venerated by Hindus.
Since the tasks of Lord Shiva are numerous, He cannot be symbolized in one form.
For this reason the images of Shiva vary significantly in their symbolism.
