Genesis Decoded as Siva Linga :

Emergence of the existing dual aspects of the Being is the beginning of the universe. The current cosmology says this in reverse as there is no existence of duality before the cataclysmic explosion of the Big Bang, the beginning of the universe. This union of Sivam and Sakthi as the cause of the all causes, and the origin of the cosmos and life is seen as Siva Lingam. This is symbolic but a real representation of the Being. This is the form of the formless in between form and formless. This is the first form we can perceive, comprehend and visualize from the formless Being.

Motions Decoded as Siva Linga:

The motion of any particle in this universe is either circular or vertical. All other movements are either part of or a combination of these two and there are no other movement possible. The circular base of Siva Lingam is called avudaiyaar which represents Sakthi. The vertical pillar of Siva Lingam penetrating this circular base is called Lingam which represents Sivam. This combined unitary form of the Sivam and Sakthi in union is depicted as Siva Lingam. These are the dual aspects of the Being in union. This is the force of the genesis. This is the force of the sustenance of the universe. This is the force of sexuality and procreation of all living beings. This is the cause of the all causes.

சிவம்சத்தி தன்னை ஈன்றும் சத்திதான் சிவத்தை ஈன்றும்

உவந்து இரு வரும்பு ணர்ந்துஇங்கு உலகுஉயி ரெல்லாம் ஈன்றும்

பவன்பிர மசாரி யாகும் பான்மொழி கன்னி யாகும்

தவந்தரு ஞானத் தோர்க்குஇத் தன்மைதான் தெரியும் அன்றே

civamcatti taṉṉai īṉṟum cattitāṉ civattai īṉṟum

uvantiru varumpu ṇarntiṅ kulakuyi rellā mīṉṟum

pavaṉpirama cāri yākum pāṉmoḻi kaṉṉi yākum

tavantaru ñāṉat tōrkkit taṉmaitāṉ teriyumaṉṟē

Sivam gives birth to Sakthi

Sakthi gives birth to Sivam

Both in happy copulatory union

Gives birth to all universe and life

Still Sivan is Bachelor

Sakthi is virgin

The ones with the divine wisdom only

Able to envision this.
