JHARKHAND : Following Indian independence in 1947, the region was divided between the new states of Madhya Pradesh, Orissa, and Bihar. In 2000 a campaign led by the BJP for a separate state culminated with the passage of the Bihar Reorganisation Act, creating Jharkhand as a new Indian state.
Jharkhand meaning ( ‘the land of forests’) is a state in eastern India. The state shares its border with the states of Bihar to the north, Uttar Pradesh to the northwest, Chhattisgarh to the west, Odisha to the south and West Bengal to the east.
VEDIK GYAN
Why always Shiva linga is placed to wards North direction. It’s water flow indicates North side.
According to the Linga Purana, the lingam is a complete symbolic representation of the formless Universe Bearer тАУ the oval-shaped stone is the symbol of the Universe, and the bottom base represents the Supreme Power that holds the entire Universe in it.
According to Agama Shastra, The base of the shiva linga should be either north or East direction.
River ganga flow form north to south. As the Shiva linga is facing east direction.
The water is flowing towards north direction , hence the water flowing side is kept facing the north. Ganga flows from Himalayas (North) and moves towards the south.
So Shiva Linga is placed in that manner facing towards East.
Women, especially unmarried women are prohibited from touching or even doing the Shiva Linga puja. But there’s a reason to it.
A shivling symbolizes the union of mind and soul.
Since the lingum represents the male reproductive organ, unmarried women are not allowed to either touch it, worship it, or offer water.
