| Swayambhu |
Swayambhu, also known as Shambhu, is a Sanskrit term meaning self-manifested or self-arisen. It means He who created Himself or who has no father & mother. The origin of Swayambhu can be traced back to ancient Hindu mythology. It is said that Lord Brahma once performed a yagna (fire sacrifice) in order to create the universe. As he was preparing to perform the yagna, a divine light emerged from the depths of the ocean, and from that light, the Swayambhu Linga was created. This is why Swayambhu is also referred to as the "Self-Manifested Linga". The Swayambhu Linga is believed to represent the purest form of Lord Shiva, and it is believed that worshipping it will bring blessings and enlightenment.
