Dark and gleaming like a chestnut, with a short red slash on its shoulder.

This tantric lingam is from Narmada River, Madhya Pradesh, India. It is quartz crystal & iron. The word Tantric is Sanskrit for to expand, and Tantra is described as a form of religious practice combining ritual, art, science and philosophy, overlaid on Hinduism and Buddhism. Lanky oval polished to a deep, smooth shine in mahogany and charcoal. A narrow red mark with a small pointed tail crosses the upper left, and a tiny dark spot sits near the base. It is 11.75 inches high and 6.5 in diameter.

Quiet depths, one flash of red.
