This tantric lingam is from Narmada River, Madhya Pradesh, India. It is quartz crystal & iron. In Tantric tradition the body of a lingam is taken to stand for male energy, described as knowledge, while its markings represent female energy, described as wisdom. Broad, upright oval with a dusty gray-brown surface and a satin sheen. A soft band of red-brown fades across the upper body, and pale streaks run along the right side. It is 10.5 inches high and 6.25 in diameter.
