Narmada Shivling in Brass Yoni Base Jalhari - XXII

"The Shivlingam with an intricately designed brass yoni base and a Narmada Lingam adorned with a snake symbolizes the union of Purusha (soul) and Prakriti (material nature). This sacred representation embodies the balance of spiritual and material aspects, reflecting the cosmic harmony and divine interplay between creation and consciousness.

Narmada Lingams are naturally formed in the Narmada River and are highly revered for their divine properties. This natural black lingam is popular amongst Shiva devotees. The brass yoni base, with self-design motifs, is handmade by traditional North Indian artisans and features two snakes symbolizing Kundalini energy.

Worship Practices:
This Shivalingam is worshipped through various traditional rituals and practices to invoke the blessings of Bhagwan Shiva. Daily Abhishekam (ritual bathing) with water, milk, honey, and other sacred substances and chanting Shiva mantras, such as ""Om Namah Shivaya,"" during the worship process enhances the spiritual vibrations and connects the devotee with the divine energy of Shiva. Devotees also adorn the Shivalingam with Bilva (Bael) leaves, flowers, and sacred ash (vibhuti) as offerings.

This Shivalingam not only serves as a focal point for worship and meditation but also embodies the infinite power and presence of Shiva, making it an essential element for any devotee's spiritual journey. "
