Antique Indian Tantric Lingam Stone on Victorian Silver Plated Base

About the Item

The Lingam is one of the oldest religious symbols of civilization. It was recognized as far back as the ancient Indus valley civilization for its healing power. This power came to be associated with one of the three main Hindu deities, lord Shiva. Over thousands of years the tantric lingam has come to represent more than a physical or material form to be worshipped as an idol by the learned sages of the East and the West. To them the lingam represents a form of energy, which is within each of us. We are all made of part male and part female energy. Too much of one or the other is destructive, causing imbalance. Male and female energies must be unified if we are to find real peace of mind. Through the union of opposites the energies of creation are released and we can realize a state of higher consciousness. Shiva Lingam stones are found only in the Narmada River in the Mandhata Mountains of India.
