Vanakkam learned ones:
This is a mystical type question, and I am hoping someone may be familiar with the tradition, if any.
I had the opportunity to purchase a larger (18 inches high, about 10 across) narmada lingam recently, so I went ahead and purchased it. I was acting solely on intuition.
The intention is perhaps (subject to the Lord of Obstacles approval) to have it installed in an outside shrine. This will take time, so in the meantime I have to store it in my home shrine. It has some vibrations with it, as it sat in a western style crystal store for some time. I want to cleanse it of this, but not activate it. (This is my house, not a temple) Then I want to store it, unactivated, but clean. I need suggestions. Can I bathe it without activating it? If I just leave it alone, will it slowly adjust to the vibration of my shrine and feel at home there. Should I wrap it in special cloth. (It is lieing on its side which helps to keep it inactive. What do priests think here? Thank you in advance.
