THE STORY OF SHIVA LINGAM

Shiva's first wife had died and in his incredible sadness, he was roaming around restlessly, wandering alone in a forest, naked and like a madman.



In that forest, there lived many rishis - which are holy men with special powers called Siddhis. They had wives, too, and while Shiva was wandering around like that, these women saw him. They could not hold onto themselves when they watched him walking by naked, his divine body in full display. They ran after him, admired him and finally started touching and hugging him.



As luck would have it, just in that time, their husbands, the rishis, came by as well. Seeing their wives in close embrace with Shiva, they got very angry, accusing him of immorality. They combined their powers and cursed Shiva, no, cursed his penis, saying it should be cut off and fall down at the spot!



There is another version in which they pick up stones and throw them at him, which with their sharp edges cut off his penis, so that it falls down.



No matter how exactly it happened, the penis fell down to earth and where it fell, it stood erected and started burning like wildfire. Wherever it went, my wife asked how it 'went' but I cannot exactly tell you, it caused inferno and chaos. Bad things started happening in the world, as if the earth's last day had arrived. Mountains burst, fire was spilling everywhere and people were in panic. Had the world come to its end?



All demigods and rishis went to Brahma, the creator of the world. He got to know what had happened and, together with everyone, reached Shiva. Everyone started pleading with him and praying: 'Please, take your penis back, it is destroying the world!'



Shiva was appeased by all these prayers and agreed, but with one condition: 'Only if you start worshipping my penis, will I take it back!'



And that is how Shiva Lingams were installed across the earth in temples everywhere and the worship of Shiva's penis started.
