Dear Group,

 

To those wanting a definition of Linga:

 

"This is the definition of Linga. The word is derived from lii, 'to

dissolve,' and 'gam,' to go out, create." Skanda Purana, Volume 67,

page 26, footnote, as quoted in "Ancient Indian Tradition and

Mythology" Series, published by Motilal Banarsidass Publishers,

Delhi, India.
