Lingham Shiva

Lingham Shiva stones are from the sacred Narmada river in Onkar Mandhata, one of India's holy sites. Villagers gather the stones from shallow river beds, they are then hand polished to balance proportions.

This often worshiped fertility stone is revered by Hindus as the embodiment of Lord Shiva. Lingham is also the sacred Sanskrit word for phallus. In Tantra, the shape embodies masculine energy, dynamic expression and knowledge.

The markings named Yoni, depicts the feminine energy, wisdom and intuition. Together, the female energy arouses the masculine urge to create. As such, the Tantric Lingham unifies the dualistic (male female) world into harmonious balance.

Shiva Lingham stones are also used in Feng Shui to direct energy flow.
