Stone Shiva Lingam Garden Sculpture 18" with discount and free shipping
- The Lingam is a form of Shiva that depicts him as a pillar of fire with his wife Parvati acting as a Yoni surrounding him
- During abhishaka the yoni collects all liquids poured on the lingam and funnels them to the spout in the front of the sculpture
- The Shiva Lingam is carved in two pieces, one of the yoni and the other is the Lingam
- The Lingam is hand carved by the artists of Java, Indonesia
The Story of the Shiva Lingam: Shiva saw not sense in the transitory pleasures of life, so he rejected samsara, smeared his body with ash, closed his eyes and performed austerities. Shiva's tapas generated so much heat that his body transformed into a pillar of fire - a blazing Lingam that threatened to destroy the whole world. The gods did not know how to control Shiva's fire. Suddenly there appeared a Yoni - the divine vessel of the mother-goddess. It caught the fiery Lingam and contained its heat, thus saving the cosmos from untimely destruction.
You just know when you find the right piece to bring into your home and into your heart. - Kyle Tortora, Founder of Lotus Sculpture
Lava stone statues from Bali do not need much maintenance. The best way to maintain the statue is to simply dust the piece periodically to keep any dirt from accumulating. They can be used for both indoor and outdoor use.
Soap and warm water is the best way to maintain the statue. You can use a small brush to get into the small crevices of the statue like the hands and hair.
Lava stone's durability makes it perfect for cold winters and hot summers of any climate. The stone can stand up to the harshest conditions of heat and bitter cold. We suggest you bathe the sculpture at least once a year so that dirt does not collect on the sculpture. This will maintain the sculpture for your grandchildren and then their grandchildren!
