Have you ever wondered why Lord Shiva, unlike many other Hindu deities, is so widely worshipped in the form of a Shivling?
For generations, devotees have offered water, milk, bel patra and flowers to the Shivling. Yet behind this familiar form lies a much deeper spiritual idea. The Shivling is traditionally understood not as an ordinary physical representation, but as a symbol of Shiva's limitless, formless and eternal nature.
