Narmadeshwar Shiva Linga- found in the bed of the Narmada river in India which flows in the states of Madhya Pradesh. This linga is called 'Banaling',an iconic symbol of worship.Banalinga is also called the Svayambhu Linga as it is discovered in nature & not carved or

Crafted by human hands.

The strong waves of Narmada River hits the stones in the river and thus this Linga forms its oval shape. This process takes thousands of years together and it is so auspicious. It is belived tgat One can even here the water inside when shaken.

Narmada Shivling are quite strong and the hardness is a 7 on the Mohs scale.Researchers and geologists suggest that the unique composition of the Narmadha Shivalingas was due to the impregnation of its rocky river-sides and the rocks in the river bed.
