FAQs
It teaches that creation is not independent material chance: Prakṛti is Śiva-sambhavā—arising from Śiva—and her many manifestations (kalā, aṁśa) are expressions of divine līlā, while Śiva remains the supreme Pati beyond limitation.
Linga worship centers on Śiva as the transcendent source from whom Śakti/Prakṛti proceeds. Seeing the world as Śiva’s power helps the devotee move from outward forms (saguṇa manifestations) to the formless reality indicated by the Linga.
Meditate with the Pañcākṣarī—“Om Namaḥ Śivāya”—contemplating that all changing kalās of the world are Śakti, while the witnessing consciousness is Śiva; offer bhasma/tripuṇḍra and japa as a reminder of detachment from Prakṛti’s transformations.
