Here the Swayambu Shiva Linga absorbs Oil when abhisheka is performed using it.

Shiva Lingam surface is rough & dry -cannot spot any oil & it appears as if no oil abhishek is performed.

Legand story-Oil abhishek is very important ritual in this temple.It is believed that oil Abhishek is done to bring down the poisonous effect in his neck as Bhagwan Shiva ( Neelakandeswara ) had Halakala poison to protect the world.

Shiva Lingam is never wet with oil.There is NO explaination to where & how the oil disappears and How Shiva Linga looks as if no oil abhishek is ever performed.
