LINGA: LORD SHIVA'S PHALLUS


The linga, a sacred symbol often worshipped in Hindu temples, is the
phallus of Lord Shiva. The origin of the linga is outlined in various
Hindu scriptures:

From the Kurma Purana -- In the Pine Forest, Shiva seduces the wives of
the sages, so the sages curse him for this immoral behavior:

"When the sages saw Siva naked and excited they beat him and they
said, 'Tear out your linga.' The great yogi said to them, 'I will do
it, if you hate my linga', and he tore it out and vanished." -- Kurma
Purana 2:38:39-41; cf. Haracaritacintamani 10:74; Yagisvaramahatmya
26a. 14. [O'Flaherty, Wendy D. Siva: The Erotic Ascetic. Pub.:
Oxford University Press. ISBN 0-19-520250-3. p.132].

From the Bhavisya Purana -- In another version, Shiva (and the other
two deities of the Trimurti) rape the sage Atri's wife and are punished:

"One day when the sage Atri was performing asceticism with his wife
Anasuya, Brahma, Visnu and Siva came to him and offered him a boon.
When Atri continued to meditate, the three gods went to Anasuya; Siva
had his linga in his hand, Visnu was full of erotic feeling, and
Brahma, beside himself with desire, said, 'Make love to me or I will
die.' When she heard this coarse speech, Anasuya made no reply, for,
although she feared the anger of the gods, she was true to her husband.
But the three gods were overcome by delusion, and they raped her by
force. Then she became angry, and she cursed Siva to be worshipped as a
linga, Brahma to be worshipped as a head, and Visnu to be worshipped as
feet, in order to ridicule them all, and she cursed them all to be
reborn as her sons. Because of this, Siva was born as Durvasas." --
Bhavisya Purana 3:4:17:67-78. [O'Flaherty, Wendy D. The Origins of
Evil in Hindu Mythology. Pub.: University of California Press. ISBN 0-
520-04098-8. pp.302-303].

Incidently, the behavior of Lord Shiva's wife, the goddess Parvati, was
not really any better than her husband's behavior. In the Siva and
Kalika Puranas, Parvati shamelessly walks out of the bedroom half-
naked, revealing her breasts:

"When the gods interrupted Siva and Parvati, two sons were born of
drops of Siva's seed. These sons were then posted at the door to
prevent further interruptions while Siva made love to Parvati, having
promised the gods that he would not spill his seed in her. One day
Parvati came out of the bedroom in great dishabille, half naked, her
breasts scored with teeth marks. The two sons chanced to see her like
that, and they were upset, but Parvati became angry and said, 'Why have
you looked at me when I was not in a state to be seen by anyone but my
husband? You should have closed your eyes. Since you have done this
immoral thing, you will be reborn as mortal men with the faces of
monkeys.' Then they were miserable and protested that it was her fault
for having come out so suddenly, and they cursed her to become a mortal
queen (Taravati) and Siva to be her husband (Candrasekhara) so that
they themselves might be born again as their sons, Vetala and
Bhairava." -- Siva Purana 3:21:1-8; Kalika Purana 49:1-92, 50:1-64,
51:1-60, 52:1-155, 53:1-217. [O'Flaherty, Wendy D. Siva: The Erotic
Ascetic. Pub.: Oxford University Press. ISBN 0-19-520250-3. pp.308-
309].

This is all great stuff. Teaches you good lessons on human behavior. These
are not Gods. They are but figures to teach human psychology.

Keep up the good work.

Gogo.

))))))))) One clarification Aranaji, linga is actually "worshiped" by hindu
women as hindu "men" are pretty small and unable to satisfy most human needs
and desires of the shirimaties. The clever Brahmans came up with holy linga ,
a clay dildo for hindu women to"worship".

Incorrect. It is Muslims like you who have a chopped-up dick, which is
the source of amusement to most women. The lack of manhood explains why
Bangladeshi women were slippering your (ha ha ha) soldiers in 1971, and
also why the NLI muja-dicks urinated in their pants and fled from Kargil

The erect phallus has always been a powerful symbol, and is perhaps
even more so today because it has become so taboo that we actually FEAR
it. It is the
symbol of the life-force, of good health and good fortune, the very
center of our being.

This is exactly why the earliest Christians, who knew well the
symbolism, deliberately destroyed or knocked the cock off of every
statue they could get their hands on. (Moslems later scratched out the
eyes for the same
reason). Your cock and balls even have come to symbolize honor.
Consider the words TESTIfy,TESTIment, etc. This is because in ancient
times, a man would
make a vow whilst clutching his own cock and or balls, and would make
pacts by clutching those of the other.

Phallic worship is really a misnomer. It is actually more a matter of
respecting the forces that are embodied in, and symbolized by, an erect
cock. These are the
forces of nothing less than creation and
destruction, BOTH of which are the male domain, in spite of what modern
feminism would have us to believe.
