Guest guest Posted February 13, 2004 Report Share Posted February 13, 2004 Pranam. I have been performing Shivabhishek in my house on a small Narmadeshwar Lingam. I have seen sphatik lingams and parad lingams too, but have continued with my little narmadeshwar, because i have felt that a Lingam is a `chinha', an indication, a symbol of Shiv, and therefore it does not matter whether it is made from riversand, stone, silver, crystal (sphatik), or Parad. Recently I had a visitor from a visitor from Slovenia who was visiting India in search of Rasa Siddhas. We got to talk about Paarad Lingam and the discussion has made me more curious than ever about this subject. I have searched the Internet for information on parad lingam, but it only has the usual commercial information. Therefore I decided to turn to this reverand group of sadhaks with my following queries: 1. What are the benefits of worshipping/performing an abhishek on Parad Lingam? Have these benefits been experienced by other sadhaks? 2. Is Parad Lingam the same as Rasa Lingam? If not, what are the differences? 3. People are now selling Sri Yantra made of Mercury. Parad is Shiv's veerya and it does not make sense to me to have a Parad Shri Yantra. Is it ok to have a parad shryantra? 4. Where can one get a genuine parad/rasa lingam for puja and abhishek? I do not seek this information for any commercial purpose. Pranam to all. Arun Naik Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
