The Shiva Lingam is a symbol of Lord Shiva in Hinduism and is worshipped in various forms. The most revered type is the Swayambhu Lingam, which is naturally occurring and considered the holiest. The Bana Lingam, found in the Narmada River, is ideal for worship at home. Jyotirlingas are twelve sacred sites across India, believed to grant direct blessings from Lord Shiva. Lingadhari are man-made idols, while Pratishthit Lingams are established in temples through special rituals. Each of these forms holds significant importance in seeking the blessings of Lord Shiva.
