Shiv Lingam stones: Shiva Lingam is a symbol of love.

This stone opens our way towards true love which brings unity. The true love relationship is a relationship with our own being. When we possess love we experience God. It is necessary to be in love and peace with oneself so that one can be able to love others without fear. The feeling of one's own esteem, dignity, and self-respect opens the possibility to feeling selfless love towards others. This stone has an egg-shaped form; it is made out of two colors - brownish and sand-color - and it possesses a smooth soft glow. Shiva linga is collected from the banks of the river Narmada in India. This river is considered very special and one of the most powerful healing streams of our planet. Shiva Lingam in the ancient Sanskrit language means a sign. This stone which is a mixture of Agate, basalt, and jasper in quartz is considered to be a devotional symbol of Lord Shiva. The composition of Shiva Linga means that it is essentially made from cryptocrystalline quartz. The legend says that Shiva Lingas originate from a meteorite that collided with Earth millions of years ago. The currents of river Narmada have helped in producing the egg-shaped form of this stone. Beautiful specimens are collected once a year, during a special ceremony. According to the Vedic legacy, linga represents the all-permeating space, wherein the Universe is found in a process of constant formation and dissolution. Shiva Lingam illustrates the harmony and totality of this dual manifestation of the Universe. The egg shape is a symbol of the surface that encompasses the Universe and forms one absolute totality. Within this essence the most important point is accepting the Universe like a Divine Being, i.e., the way as It really is. Some consider the Shiva Linga stone to be a symbol of adoration at the physical plane. It is thought to be able to help in bringing the devotees to a state of unity with God. Those who possess the knowledge and understanding can use this stone as a divine channel and bring the lower self in contact with their Higher Self. It is also believed that the shape of the stone can represent male energy and knowledge, whereas the patterns, which are always different from one stone the the other, represent the female energy and wisdom. Together, the two elements symbolize joining of male and female energy. The Linga can be a reminder that we should balance our Yin and Yang energies and establish a harmonious state of existence. By mere holding this stone we can feel pulsating, since the Linga aligns our energies with the planetary energy. It represents harmony of the soul's energy forces within the Universe.
