Shiviling is available in different materials and one such is, the one made of mercury liquid metal. Mercury is known as Parad (in Hindi Paaraa). What importance does it hold? It is not mere conjecture but in actuality human mind is more often than not unsteady, and Parad too has the same property. If mercury is stabilized through different processes and a parad shivalingam made out of it, it has tremendous stabilizing effect on the person sitting next to it and meditates. According to scriptures persons who were blessed in the previous birth are bestowed with it in the next birth. So considering its importance and steadying effect persons with great indecisive mind must meditate sitting next to this wondrous shivling.
