The Narmada River is considered to be very sacred. The Narmada River is considered the mother and giver of peace. Legend has it that the mere sight of this river is enough to cleanse one's soul, as against a dip in the Ganga or seven in the Yamuna. The Ganga is believed to visit this river once a year, in the guise of a black cow to cleanse herself of all her collected sins. The Shivalings are made of crypto crystalline quartz, and are said to have been formed from a meteorite that fell to Earth several million years ago. They contain one of the loftiest vibrations of all stones on Earth. The Narmada shivalingas represents the blending of male and female energy, with the shape of the stone representing the male (knowledge), and the markings representing the female (wisdom). Shiva and Shakti (consort of Lord Shiva represent this union of male and female energies - essential for the growth of the human race. The shivlings works with the breath and the fluids of the body creating a harmony in the body's flow. The Shiva of Narmadeshawara Lingam stones are sacred in both Hindu and Buddhist beliefs. They are gathered one sacred day a year from an area near the source of the Narmada River about 300 miles north of Mumbai. Of the stones gathered, the most beautiful are polished into this traditional egg/oval shape by the action of the river. According to Vedic text, Narmada shivlings illustrate harmony through duality. In these shivlings are the energy of divine acceptance of what is, as is. Narmada shivlings represent power, creation and the physical plane or grounding of those who accompany these sacred stones. /dispCategory.php?catId=52 To send an email to: Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
