Shiva, Shravana, Amarnath And The Ice Lingam
Thursday, July 26, 2018 IST
The whole month of shravana is regarded as being special to Shiva. The ice lingam increases and decreases in size with the waning and waxing of the moon. Full moon day on the last day of the month is considered auspicious for darshan of Shiva at Amarnath as this is when the ice lingam reaches its full stature. Thousands of devotees have been paying their respects to this naturally formed ice lingam situated at an altitude of 12,756 ft to the south of Zojila on the one side and to the northeast of Pahalgam on the other side.
