The Symbology of the Shiva Lingam

Description:

One of the mistakes often made by those outside of India is to look at Vedic symbology in superficial terms.


The Shiva Lingam is one such symbol. Frequently viewed as a representation of male and female genitalia, it actually has a much deeper and richer significance than this.


Thom gives us an entry-level look at the subject in this episode, correcting the misuse of the term Shiva Lingam, and clarifying its symbolism.
