Lingashtakam

The “Lingashtakam” is a revered Sanskrit hymn composed in praise of Lord Shiva, particularly in his Shiva Linga form, which symbolizes the formless aspect of the divine and the creative power of the universe. It expresses deep reverence and surrender to Lord Shiva as the destroyer of sin, the giver of liberation (moksha), and the essence of the universe. It emphasizes the purity, auspiciousness, and spiritual significance of worshipping the Linga.
