A Siva Linga is a powerful ritual/meditation tool. The linga is a symbolic icon representing the male and female generative organs. This is an ancient sacred, tantric symbol for the creative and powerful energies of the Divine. This is a potent form of Lord Shiva containing both the masculine and feminine energies of the Divine, the sum of Divine Intelligence and Compassion. Crystal is a material which amplifies subtle vibrations. It is used in meditative arts only for positive purposes. Doing ritual/meditation practice with a Crystal Siva Linga accelerates the practice. Some people keep a Crystal Siva Linga on their meditation table/alter. Siva Baba has suggested doing a daily practice of pouring a small amount of liquid over a Crystal Siva Linga each day, perhaps in the morning. You can put the Crystal Siva Linga in a small cup, pour a small amount of milk or water or juice over the Siva Linga, reciting the chant OM NA MA SI VA YA a few times. This simple practice strongly focuses and energizes your prayers and brings the Divine energies into your daily life. When done, rinse off the Crystal Siva Linga and dry it off. Some people place a flower or offer incense or candlelight when they return the Crystal Siva Linga to their meditation table/alter. If you want to drink the liquid you poured over it when it was in the small cup, that is fine, as a kind of "communion." This ancient tool was given with Divine blessings, and Siva Baba is very pleased to share His blessings with the world through these Crystal Siva Lingas. |
