A question which is asked by westerners and now a days by Indians as well about Shiv Ling is that why human male organ is representing Shiva, when he is the supreme lord. He represents a start and end point of universe.

This question is nothing but sheer ignorance of parents who were unable to teach kids about the dharma and how universe works in sync with incidents mentioned in vedas- As when story of Vedas mention the curse given to Lord Shiv — there are deeper meanings of it and it is shallowness of intellectual society to take the literal meanings of narration without understanding the context.

Shiv is the entity who is extremely powerful in nature as he is the one who has access to both ends of circle- the beginning as well as the end.

Mahadev

A Circle has no end or beginning but still you have to start and end somewhere in the sky -Shiv exactly represents the same point, that although he is said to be responsible for destruction in universe but he is also the start point as well.

He is the one where Start and end points meet in circle and when two opposite energies meeting at a point give rise to the supreme Shiv, who silently observes everything as he knows what is ending today will start tomorrow, He is not worried about giving out boons and wishes to humans as lord Shiv knows that he can easily take it back and the entire universe has to restarted again.

When you are on junction of energy where positive and negative are meeting, Even a small amount of energy difference will create a result for you as you are trying to balance the both ends, Imagine a person trying to hold both ends together and you can imagine in the whole universe the most sensitive point is not anywhere in the circuit but where the both ends are meeting.

Mahadev was so sensitive that anyone who prayed to Mahadev, Mahadev use to give out wishes even when someone will say his name in pradhosh kaal thrice and to make sure sensitivity of Mahadev comes down application of bhasam on Mahadev is done so less of external interference of energies is there.

Curse of Maharishi Bhrigu came as a boon to lord Shiv as the curse was to be prayed in form of lingam, which is made of stone and as we know that stone does not reacts easily to changing temperature, water or atmosphere, this was the boon to universe as the most sensitive energy is now being controlled.

We all transmit energy from body and most sensitive human body part is ling, the curse was that you will be prayed in the form of most sensitive human body part but as this is being made of stone, you will not be able to respond easily to fulfill wishes.

Shivling under Dhatura tree -at home.

Mahadev required this curse as his generosity was getting him in trouble again and again but Shiv being the supreme source of energy that even after being in form of stone, he is still able to grant boons and wishes easily in today’s world.

One of the remedies mentioned in Shiv Puran is -in the time of health issues is making Shivling using mud and red chandan and praying to this Shiv ling grants boon to native in terms of health.
