The Linga Purana Part 1
Linga Purana
Author: B. K. Chaturvedi
Publisher: Diamond Pocket Books (P) Ltd.
ISBN: 9788128806797
Category : Religion
Languages : en
Pages : 110
Book Description
Puranas are almost like an encyclopedia listing the hitman achievements in this part of the world till the time they were edited or compiled. In every cycle of time the master editor called Veda vyas emerges to edit, vet and compile these records. Their significance is enormous even in the present, as they give a peep into the distant past of Hindus when the world was evolving and the psyche of the race was being formed. These Puranas record the arguments that make us to decide as to what is holy and what is vile; what is good and what is had. By going through them we can compare our present day jurisprudence vis-a-vis the ancient norms. Apart from that, they are a huge store-house of information conceiving every subject under the sun. It is with the view of unearthing these gems that the present series of the puranas has been planned.

Linga Puran
Author: Lahiri Mahasaya
Publisher: Ancient Kriya Yoga Mission
ISBN:
Category : Body, Mind & Spirit
Languages : en
Pages : 95
Book Description
This is a scriptural commentary of Lahiri Mahasaya on Linga Puran, In The Light Of Kriya. When the body trembles, it is medium Pranayam. When the body levitates, it is Super Pranayam. Seeing the inner Visions is called Darsan. The Kriyanwit, holding onto the After-effect-poise of Kriya in Samadhi, stays like a corpse. The Yogi becomes extremely powerful and inward when he holds onto the After-effect-poise of Kriya for a whole year. His sperm become golden. He becomes Omniscient and generates good Seed. His arms reach out in ten directions, and he may accept whatever he wants to. The eyes of one who holds onto the After-effect-poise of Kriya do not blink (nimes). That is why he is called Animes. Those who walk on the earth and who fly in the sky, like renunciates and energetic beings, all are holding eight kinds of powers through earth, water, fire, air and ether. At the After-effect-poise (Turiya) of Kriya, one does not like to speak. He is Kapali, that is, He holds the air in the forehead (Kapal). He stays at Kailash Mountain, that is, at the head, at the After-effect-poise (Turiya) of Kriya like the ultimate Self. He is Guhavashi. That is, in the Star in between the eyebrows there is a cave where He lives. He is Kulahari. That is, He snatches away the energy of Kulakundalini. This body is the sound of OM or Pranava. Prana makes all beings tranquil by the practice of Kriya in this body. That is why it is called Pranava. This very breath is spread over in all bodies. That is why Mahadeva is all pervading and everywhere in all beings.

What Exactly Is A Shiva Lingam
Author: Mr. Rahul Dudhane
Publisher: Rahul Dudhane
ISBN:
Category : Art
Languages : en
Pages : 133
Book Description
A Shiva lingam is an aniconic representation of Lord Shiva. Hindus worship Lord Shiva mostly in the form of a Shiva lingam, but its meaning has been one of the most debated topics. There are mainly two groups; one believes it is a sexual organ and others believe it is not. They both give many different arguments in the support of their perspective. With the advent of science and technology, one more group has emerged which strongly believes that there is some sort of science behind the concept of Shiva Lingam. But what are the reasons behind this confusion? 1. There are some stories in the Hindu scriptures that depict it as a sexual organ while some stories say it is a column of fire. 2. Many different meanings of the words linga and yoni. 3. Ancient pillar/phallus worship. 4. Different practices of different Hindu sects. 5. The shape of a Shiva lingam. In February 2010, the encyclopedia Britannica removed a sentence about Shiva lingam from its article.“In temples and private shrines, Shiva is ... worshipped in the form of the lingam, or phallus, often embedded in the yoni, the symbol of the female sexual organ.”It is believed that it did so because of the pressure of Netizens, but I doubt that a website like Britannica would do so unless there is some valid reason behind it. When we talk about religion, the scriptures are of utmost importance. Therefore, in this book, I have sought refuge mainly in scriptures to determine what exactly a Shiva Lingam is, but I have also considered other things like archaeological evidence, logic, history, science, etc. I am sure that this book would not only answer what a Shiva lingam really is but also you would learn many new things about Hinduism.
