Shiva linga

Bhima Devi Temple Site Museum, Pinjore

The lingam is a votary aniconic object found in the sanctum of Shiva temples and private shrines that symbolizes Shiva and is "revered as an emblem of generative power". Shiva is the absolute reality, the timeless, formless and space less. The multiplicity of Shiva's forms and his various aspects and exploits are encapsulated in some of his Puranic epithets.
