Punnainalloor Sri Rama

[Guest guest]

It is an interesting narrative. Doe shaligramam

mean black stone? I thought it refer to a very

special stone fossil, ammonites, with sanil like

sea creature embedded as a fossil, quite cole

to a shanku( xut ) in resemblance.

I had associated this to choosing one of the

oldest fossils known to man as symmbolizing

creation. Such shaligrams are found in Nepal and

Hilalyab valleys of Brahmaputra, as a

rsult of the creation of Inida from a piece of

Antartica. Othe r such fossils are found

in Europe etc. in all shapes. May be some one

here may shed more light and correct me.
